Two federal officers discharged their weapons during the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti on January 24, as detailed in a preliminary report by the Department of Homeland Security. The report indicates that officers yelled warnings before shooting Pretti, although it does not confirm whether he was armed or had attacked the officers. Eyewitness videos suggest Pretti did not hold a weapon during the incident, and a federal judge has ordered the preservation of evidence following the shooting. The incident occurred during a controversial federal operation in Minneapolis aimed at curbing local crime and illegal immigration.
