TL;DR
Two people shot by U.S. Border Patrol in Portland last week have been released from the hospital and face federal charges: Luis David Nino-Moncada (aggravated assault) and Yorlenys Zambrano-Contreras (illegal entry), after their pickup allegedly rammed an unmarked patrol vehicle during a stop.
