"On Saturday, Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis shot and killed 37-year-old Alex Pretti, who had been filming them. At one point, one agent shoved a woman to the ground. Video shows Pretti attempting to help her before being swarmed by agents, who took his holstered firearm, for which Pretti had a permit. After disarming him, agents shot him 10 times, killing him."
"On Monday's AC360, Cooper reported live from Minneapolis, where he noted that the Trump administration's claims about Pretti particularly ones made immediately after the killing were contradicted by multiple videos of Pretti's death. The host also played a clip of FBI Director Kash Patel saying, You cannot bring a firearm, loaded with multiple magazines, to any sort of protest that you wanted. Notably, Minnesota allows open carry for handguns, provided a permit is obtained."
Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis shot and killed 37-year-old Alex Pretti after taking his holstered, permitted handgun. Video shows Pretti filming agents, attempting to help a woman shoved to the ground, being swarmed, disarmed, then shot ten times. Multiple videos contradicted initial claims from the Trump administration about the encounter. FBI Director Kash Patel said a person cannot bring a firearm loaded with multiple magazines to a protest, though Minnesota allows open carry with a permit. Patel had solicited donations for Kyle Rittenhouse; Rittenhouse was acquitted after claiming self-defense and was praised by Trump, who posted Pretti's gun photo and emphasized extra magazines while professing Second Amendment support.
