New video from the shooting of Alex Pretti by Department of Homeland Security in Minneapolis Saturday morning shows officers pile onto the late ICU nurse before the fatal shots ring out.
Check out the shocking clip — the video is filmed from across the street and shows a person, seemingly Pretti, being pushed by an officer as a woman clings onto him. They seemingly get in a shoving match with another individual … and about 6 agents join in the chaos.
Pretti is wrestled to the ground … and several shots are eventually fired mid-altercation. It also appears one officer walks away with a gun in his left hand — unclear if it’s the gun Pretti had on his body or one belonging to an officer.
DHS Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told TMZ law enforcement officers were conducting a targeted operation against an illegal person wanted for violent assault just after 9 AM local time when an individual approached officers with a 9 mm semi-automatic handgun. An altercation ensued, and the man … later identified as Pretti, ended up dead.
