Several border agents were hospitalized after two separate attacks by migrants, a local ABC News affiliate is reporting:

Both incidents happened in Arizona, near Tuscon:

In the first incident, agents were attempting to stop a human smuggling operation involving four male suspects. During the arrest attempt, one of the men became combative, according to Border Patrol.

The 25-year-old Guatemalan national allegedly threw dirt at an agent’s face and swung a belt with a large buckle on it at an agent. After being taken into custody, the suspect also allegedly spit in an agent’s face.
