Border Patrol Agent Nicholas Ivie was accidentally shot and killed in a case of mistaken identity when he and another pair of agents checked on a ground sensor that had been set off near Bisbee, Arizona, at approximately 1:30 am.

The agents encountered each other in an area of extremely rocky terrain. Because of the darkness and obstructions, they were unable to identify each other as agents. They exchanged gunfire during the encounter and Agent Ivie was killed while one of the other agents was wounded.

Agent Ivie had served with the U.S. Border Patrol for four years and was assigned to the Brian A. Terry Border Patrol Station. He is survived by his wife and children, and his parents.

This is for nick's wife. I received a letter today from my aunt toni and it was a check for $225 dollars. My husband and I are going through a rough patch he lost his job and right after, our daughter was born. My aunt toni included in the letter that she saw on facebook about your husband and that you wanted people to do 225 random acts of kindness in his honor. I think that is amazing and what a wonderful memory that will be for your children!! My aunt toni lost her husband my uncle Robbie (Robert Hardesty FBI) and it devastated our family but we have stayed strong and his memory lives on. You and your family are in my prayers. I am so happy to be a part of the random acts of kindness and will surely pay it forward. Your husband would be so proud.
