   New details have emerged in a shooting that led to the death of an illegal   
   immigrant on an Arizona rancher’s property.   
      
   One witness revealed that a Mexican national shot dead on the property of   
   Arizona rancher George Alan Kelly crossed the border illegally in Friday   
   court testimony, according to the Los Angeles Times.   
      
   Kelly is facing a second-degree murder charge in connection to the   
   shooting death of Gabriel Cuen-Buitimea.   
      
   He’s also facing aggravated assault charges for what prosecutors say were   
   shots fired at other fleeing illegal aliens.   
      
   An anonymous illegal migrant testified that he entered the United States   
   after paying smugglers to infiltrate the border with Cuen-Buitimea,   
   speaking in an evidentiary hearing in Nogales, Arizona.   
      
   “I turned around to see if it was government agents coming after us.”   
      
   “I was able to jump and I jumped the wall back to Mexico,” the witness,   
   identified only as “D.R.R,” stated in the hearing.   
      
   An attorney for Kelly has denied that her client shot Cuen-Buitimea,   
   according to the Los Angeles Times.   
      
   She said the 74-year-old rancher retrieved his weapon and fired warning   
   shots after observing a group of armed, camouflaged men who allegedly   
   threatened him with their own rifles.   
      
   The rancher had heard a single gunshot in the vicinity of his Kino Springs   
   property north of the U.S. — Mexico border.   
      
   Kelly found the body of the deceased illegal migrant on his property later   
   on the evening of Jan. 30, according to a court document filed by his   
   attorney and obtained by Fox News.   
      
   The rancher called Customs and Border Patrol after the first exchange of   
   gunfire, having been “understandably concerned and reasonably feared for   
   his safety, his wife’s safety, and his animals’ safety,” according to   
   defense attorney Brenna Larkin.   
      
   Three detectives also testified in the Friday hearing in support of the   
   criminal charges against Kelly, according to KOLD-TV.   
      
   One detective cited the account of an illegal alien subsequently arrested   
   for human smuggling — after escaping what he described as a shooting on   
   the part of Kelly.   
      
   Santa Cruz County Justice of the Peace Emilio G. Velasquez assigned the   
   case to the Santa Cruz County Superior Court after Friday’s evidentiary   
   hearing, according to the Associated Press.   
      
   Kelly secured a $1 million cash bond after a fundraising drive for his   
   pre-trial release on GiveSendGo.   
      
   The Arizona rancher is slated for an arraignment hearing on March 6,   
   according to KOLD.
