AZ Deputy Shot by Suspected Illegal Alien

Could this be why Arizona passed the tough immigration law?  (h/t Dan Riehl):
CASA GRANDE, AZ (KOLD) - A Pinal County Sheriff's deputy was shot Friday near Interstate 8 near Arizona 84 after a traffic stop.

When the deputy approached the vehicle, he was shot in the stomach with an AK-47, officials said.

The deputy said in a radio transmission at about 4:30 p.m. that he had been shot by an undocumented immigrant in the desert, according to Phoenix media outlets.

A search is on right now in the area for the suspect.

The wounded deputy has been airlifted to a hospital.
I sure hope the deputy didn't ask him for his papers. That would be a crime.

UPDATE:  Deputy will be okay.
