Video online shows agents dog piling on and struggling on top of a man when the shots are heard, a ski-masked man, presumably a federal agent, can be seen firing his gun at the man who is laying on the ground as the dog pile breaks up. DHS says the man was armed. New York Times reports that the video shows the victim had a cell phone not a gun. read more

The parents of Alex Pretti put out a statement defending their son from the attacks from the President of the United States. "We are heartbroken but also very angry.
Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman.
The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump's murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed.
Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you." read more
