Family of man shot dead by federal agent in Minneapolis ask for ‘truth’ | BBC News


Federal immigration officers have shot and killed a man in Minneapolis, US, identified by local officials as 37-year-old Alex Pretti.

State and federal officials have provided conflicting accounts of the moments prior to Pretti’s death, which comes less than three weeks after Renee Good was shot dead by an immigration agent in the city

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said an agent fired "defensive shots" after Pretti "reacted violently", while Minnesota Governor Tim Walz said federal authorities’ accounts are "nonsense" and "lies".

Pretti, a US citizen and nurse, has been described as a "kind-hearted soul" by his parents; they call for the "truth" about their son.
