On January 24, 2026, multiple videos show federal agents fatally shooting 37‑year‑old Alex Pretti in Minneapolis near West 26th Street and Nicollet Avenue. (theguardian.com) Footage appears to show Pretti filming officers, being pepper‑sprayed and wrestled to the ground before several agents fired multiple shots. (washingtonpost.com) DHS says officers attempted to disarm a man who approached with a 9mm and fired in self‑defense. (theguardian.com) Witnesses, family and open‑source analysts dispute that account, say Pretti held only a phone, note he was a lawful permit‑to‑carry gun owner, and contend video suggests a firearm may have been removed before shots. (theguardian.com) Protests and nationwide demonstrations followed immediately. (theguardian.com)
