The Vermont Supreme Court is hearing arguments Wednesday in a case state lawmakers filed against Gov. Phil Scott and interim Education Secretary Zoie Saunders. The lawsuit stems from a controversy last April when Scott appointed Saunders as interim secretary.

As much of the nation watched Trump take office for the second time in history, a border agent in Vermont was reportedly shot dead by a migrant.

The agent was identified as David “Chris” Maland, 44. Maland was a Blue Earth native and a graduate of Fairmont High School.

Agent David “Chris” Maland died in a shooting following a traffic stop, the FBI said. A second person killed in the incident was a German national in the country on a current visa, authorities said.

Members of the Vermont Senate took a moment to remember David "Chris" Maland, 44, a U.S. Border Patrol agent who was shot and killed in the line of duty near the U.S.-Canada border Monday afternoon. Sen. Russ Ingalls, who represents the northern Vermont county where Maland was killed, was emotional on the Senate floor.

Crews are at the scene of a house fire that broke out this morning in the town of Windsor. The Windsor Police Chief told NBC5 that the fire started at approximately 9:20 a.m. at a home on VT Route 44.

David "Chris" Maland, the U.S. Border Patrol agent allegedly killed by a German national during a traffic stop near the Vermont-Canada border on Monday, was an Air Force veteran.

He had a tremendous respect and pride for the work he did; he truly embodied service over self,” his family said.

Governor Phil Scott identified David Maland as the fallen officer, extending his “heartfelt condolences to Agent Maland’s family, friends, and colleagues."

It's nothing all that impressive, but it's something that could cause a little bit of a stir on area roadways for late week. We have a weak system set to pass through the North Country and Upper Valley late tonight through Friday afternoon.
