Family members of Ignacio Ramos, a former El Paso Border Patrol agent imprisoned for shooting a drug smuggler in the buttocks and not reporting it, said Ramos was beat up by other inmates Saturday.

Ramos, who is locked up in a federal prison in Yazoo City, Miss., was then put in solitary, his father-in-law, Joe Loya, reported Monday.
