MN - Alex Pretti dead after Minneapolis shooting involving immigration agents, US media report, January 24, 2026

[nhmemorymaker]

It's legal with a permit to open carry in Minnesota. Just because he was carrying a gun, doesn't mean it was out and he was threatening someone with it.

MOO

I can hear at least 10 shots in this video, possibly 12 since there’s a lot at the end that kind of makes it hard to count. 10 shots directly into a man as he’s laying on the ground.

The video shows what looks like an execution by a group of ICE agents.

My opinion.

The statement adds that when a protester brings a weapon with them, "there are going to be severe consequences and repercussions".

Or ... "when an American citizen carries their lawful weapon on their person, they will be shot and killed."

imo

And where are the witnesses?

You mean the ICE agents who left the scene not in proper condition for Minneapolis police to examine and secure?

If the National Guard is there to usher ICE out, that would be the only good use of their time and energy. MN citizens aren't the problem.

Hopefully, they're there to protect MN residents from the brutality of ICE.

ICE approach him, pushing him away

New video, new angles, at link.

Hopefully, they're there to protect MN residents from the brutality of ICE.

I sincerely hope so.

Hopefully, they're there to protect MN residents from the brutality of ICE.

If ICE left, as the state has asked them to do, that would protect residents from the violence the agents brought to Minnesota.

Opinion, mine.

Presser upcoming from Minnesota BCA (Bureau of Criminal Apprehension).

 

[SouthAussie]

Sure, and ICE agents who have next to 0 training and a ton of anger storming the streets with a God complex and weapons they barely know how to use can also kill citizens in cold blood.

I know what my money is on.

MOO.

This guy, like the ICE person who killed Renee Good, is a longer-term CBP person. Which says to me that the shooter knew exactly what he was doing.

Officer who fatally shot Minneapolis man during protest is an 8-year Border Patrol veteran, federal officials say​

AP: Man killed by federal officer was Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse​

Family members say the man killed by a federal officer in Minneapolis on Saturday was an intensive care nurse at the Veterans Administration who cared deeply about people and was upset by President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown in his city.

Alex Jeffrey Pretti, 37, was an avid outdoorsman who loved getting in adventures with Joule, his beloved Catahoula Leopard dog who also recently died. He had participated in protests following the killing of Renee Good by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Law Enforcement officer earlier this month.

"He cared about people deeply and he was very upset with what was happening in Minneapolis and throughout the United States with ICE, as millions of other people are upset," said Michael Pretti, Alex's father. "He felt that doing the protesting was a way to express that, you know, his care for others."

Pretti was a U.S. citizen, born in Illinois. Like Good, court records showed he had no criminal record and his family said he had never had any interactions with law enforcement beyond a couple of traffic tickets.
