Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) is leading the federal probe into the fatal shooting of 37-year-old nurse Alex Pretti by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, with oversight from the FBI. This investigation has raised concerns due to HSI’s lack of experience in officer-involved shootings, traditionally handled by external entities. Eyewitness accounts contradict official claims that Pretti approached officers with a gun, with videos suggesting he held a phone instead. Local officials noted Pretti was a lawful gun owner, and witnesses assert he did not threaten the agents.
