Yes the woman in pink who was filming very closely had her footage come out. I’m sure it will be in MSM soon. There is also a 2nd video I saw of another bystander who had their phone confiscated by ICE as soon as the shooting happened. They are forced into a brick wall corner and yelled at to give the officer their cell phone and then the video cuts out.

Trump accuses local officials of inciting 'insurrection'

We've just heard from President Donald Trump, who accuses the mayor of Minneapolis and the governor of Minnesota of fomenting an "insurrection".
In a social media post, Trump shared an image of the pistol that federal officials say the suspect had.
"Where are the local Police? Why weren’t they allowed to protect ICE Officers? The Mayor and the Governor called them off? It is stated that many of these Police were not allowed to do their job, that ICE had to protect themselves — Not an easy thing to do!," he writes.
Without citing evidence, Trump accuses local officials of a "cover up" to hide theft and fraud.
He adds: "The mayor and governor are inciting insurection, with their pompous, dangerous and arrogant rhetoric... LET OUR ICE PATRIOTS DO THEIR JOB!"
Trump has repeatedly threatened to invoke the rarely used Insurrection Act to quell unrest over federal immigration enforcement in Minneapolis.
There are no public events on Trump's schedule today, but he is due to hold a closed-door screening of a documentary about his wife Melania this evening.

I don't think emptying a magazine is considered highly trained unless ICE use Call of Duty as a training manual.US federal law enforcement officials begin news conference
We're now hearing from federal law enforcement officials at a news conference.

We'll bring you the key lines here, but you can also follow along by pressing Watch live at the top of this page.
Border Patrol agent fired 'defensive shots', commander says
We're now hearing from Greg Bovino, Border Patrol commander.
He tells the press that this morning, an individual approached ICE agents with a 9mm semi-automatic handgun. The agents "attempted to disarm the individual but he violently resisted".
"Fearing for his life... a Border Patrol agent fired defensive shots," Bovino continues.
Medical aid was given straight away but the man was pronounced dead at the scene, he says.
The man had two loaded magazines and no accessible ID, he adds.
"This looks like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement," he says.
Officer involved in shooting 'highly trained', Bovino says
Bovino says the Border Patrol officer involved in the shooting today was "highly trained".
He does not give any details about the identity of the agent.

MN officials are saying the victim was a legal gun owner, I'm guessing they are getting out in front of this because of the lies already coming out from Feds.
Hard to say what that is in his hand.
As it's an important source of new information, I'm going to take a chance that the twitter feed of Drop Site News is an acceptable source for Websleuths.
That's what I see too. I don't see he did anything other than film and they accosted him, pepper sprayed him, then shot him.
From the video above, I see the victim is trying to help the 2 women who are being pushed and pepper sprayed by ICE, then he himself is pepper sprayed directly in his eyes. This causes chaos as he starts to flail around and the officers try to arrest him. He falls to the ground and an officer removes the gun from his person. They then start firing multiple rounds directly into him after he has been disarmed. But I also never saw him ever reach for his own gun at any point. Both his hands are flat on the ground as he’s being shot.

Yeah I can't see they can spin this one.
They executed a man in cold blood. Thanks for posting this other angle, it's even clearer that there was zero justification for their murder. INSANE!!!
Ok YouTube. I’m not saying it’s the case here, but can’t videos be altered or created by ai these days?
