Deaths Mount As Trump Immigration Push Intensifies
The man killed in Minneapolis on Saturday was a U.S. citizen, identified in news reports as Alex Pretti, 37, a registered nurse and lawfully permitted gun owner.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security said a Border Patrol agent fired at the man, who resisted agents' attempts to disarm him, but local leaders challenged that account.
In a bystander video verified by Reuters, multiple agents struggle on the ground with Pretti, and appear to strike him before a shot is fired. Pretti falls down, after which multiple additional shots can be heard.
The shooting followed Good's death earlier this month, when U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer Jonathan Ross fired into her vehicle.
Within hours of that shooting, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem called Good a "domestic terrorist" who tried to ram the ICE officer with her car, although the department has not presented evidence of a link to terrorism. Video shows Ross fired as Good's car moved past him.
