Arizona Republicans propose amending the "Castle Doctrine" law, allowing property owners to shoot undocumented immigrants crossing their land under House Bill 2843.

Arizona Republicans propose changing the state's Homicide law, aiming to permit property owners to shoot and kill undocumented immigrants who cross their land.

Supporters of the bill claim it addresses growing numbers of migrants crossing farm and ranch land.
