Two officers and a Border Patrol employee were wounded, including one who was shot in the knee. All were taken to hospital for treatment.
McAllen Police Chief Victor Rodriguez identified the suspect as Ryan Louis Mosqueda during a news conference, according to local broadcaster ABC7.
The FBI is leading the ongoing investigation, the DHS added.
Flights at McAllen International Airport were briefly disrupted but have since resumed normal operations, local police said.
