FBI Agent Might Have Been Killed By a Comrade

READINGTON, N.J. — An FBI agent killed yesterday in a shootout with three bank robbery suspects in north central New Jersey might have been shot accidentally by another member of his stakeout team, the FBI said. Special Agent Barry Lee Bush, 52, assigned to the Newark FBI office, died after agents confronted three men suspected in a series of armed bank robberies.
"Preliminarily, information suggests the agent may have been fatally wounded as a result of the accidental discharge of another agent's weapon during a dynamic arrest situation," the FBI said in a statement released last night.
