Station KARE in Minneapolis reported:
MINNEAPOLIS — The man shot and killed by a federal agent in Minneapolis on Saturday has been identified as Alex Pretti.
The Associated Press reported Pretti’s parents confirmed his identity, and that he worked as an ICU nurse.
State records show Pretti was issued a nursing license in 2021, we’ve also confirmed he worked for some time at US Dept of Veterans Affairs as a nurse.
Pretti was an American citizen.
Before Pretti’s killing, Governor Tim Walz activated the Minnesota National Guard to assist local police in maintaining safety.
The Minnesota Star Tribune reported that Pretti had no criminal record other than parking tickets. He was a licensed gun owner.
Just moments earlier, Border Patrol Cmdr. Greg Bovino said at a press conference that the man who was killed “wanted to do maximum damage to agents.”
Walz rejected that as a false narrative.
“Thank God we have video,” Walz said. “It’s nonsense people. It’s nonsense and it’s lies.”
When killed by 10 shots, Alex Pretti did not have a gun in his hand.

This is why Democrats lose. As Mike Lofgren said 16 years ago : Democrats do not know how to use language. “ Nonsense “ no it is not. He should have said that this is murder and the murderous thugs who committed it will eventually be held accountable. As well as the fascist thugs they work for . Right up to the White House

Joel: This is beyond a “like” (what is a “like?” in a situation such as this). What you wrote: Murder. What IS “nonsense” is the pussyfooting & cowardice of Congress…Republicans AND Democrats. Frey, Walz & Klobuchar–keep pushing. PUSH your colleagues into not just doing the right thing but taking the necessary steps to save lives.
