President Trump defended federal agents after Border Patrol fatally shot Alex Pretti in Minneapolis during Operation Metro Surge, calling Pretti a “gunman” and accusing local Democrats of inciting insurrection. (aljazeera.com) Bystander video released publicly appears to show Pretti holding a phone, not a weapon, contradicting DHS claims he approached agents with a handgun and fueling protests, legal challenges, and calls for accountability. (yahoo.com) Minnesota Democrats urged DHS and ICE to withdraw and wind down the operation, and state officials sought court intervention to halt it. (dhs.techmis.com) DHS says it is leading the investigation while reviewing body camera and bystander footage and widening outrage. (washingtonpost.com)

Newly released footage shows Alex Pretti spitting at federal agents and kicking a Border Patrol SUV during a January 13 protest, footage verified by BBC and confirmed by Pretti’s family. The clip, circulated by The News Movement and picked up, shows officers tackling the man and later retrieving a visible handgun from his waistband; Pretti was fatally shot by Border Patrol on January 24 during a separate operation. The Trump administration cited the video to challenge portrayals of Pretti as a peaceful protester, with President Trump highlighting the footage and criticizing local leaders’ handling of protests.
