In a new DHS report, two Customs and Border Protection officers are said to have fired their guns at 37‑year‑old Alex Jeffrey Pretti during a Minneapolis raid that ended in his death. The report, released to Congress, details a struggle in which a border patrol agent yelled that Pretti had a gun and, within minutes, the agent and a CBP officer discharged their Glock pistols. Video evidence shows Pretti helping a woman when the agents surrounded the pair, prompting protests from bystanders. The incident comes as President Donald Trump signals he may scale back the federal immigration surge in Minnesota, a move that has drawn criticism from local officials and activists who point to the aggressive tactics and violent outcomes of recent ICE operations. { "title": "ICE agents fired guns at Minneapolis victim Alex Pretti, DHS report finds", "category": "Politics", "tags": ["Politics", "Defense"], "entities": { "countries": ["United States"], "cities": ["Minneapolis", "Minnesota"], "persons": ["Alex Pretti", "Alex Jeffrey Pretti", "Donald Trump"] }, "sentiment": "Negative" }
