Witness Accounts Challenge DHS Narrative in Minneapolis Shooting
TL;DR
Witnesses in sworn court filings describe the fatal Minneapolis shooting of 37-year-old Alex Jeffrey Pretti by federal agents differently from the government’s account: a doctor near the scene says agents hesitated and asked for proof of medical license before rendering aid, while another witness contests DHS’s version; video footage reportedly contradicts parts of the federal narrative, reviving protests in a city already tense over immigration enforcement.
