Newly surfaced bystander videos of the January 24, 2026, Minneapolis confrontation show Alex Pretti filming federal immigration officers, being pepper‑sprayed and wrestled to the ground during an anti‑ICE enforcement action; moments later agents fired, fatally wounding him. DHS says Pretti carried a 9mm handgun and violently resisted as officers tried to disarm him, while multiple news analyses conclude the footage does not show him brandishing a weapon. Pretti, a 37‑year‑old ICU nurse, had reportedly been involved in earlier clashes with federal officers about a week before the shooting. I could not verify January 13 video showing him spitting at agents. (factcheck.org)
