Minneapolis: 37-Year-Old Killed by ICE Agents – 'Disgusting Lies'

A 37-year-old ICU nurse, Alex Jeffrey Pretti, was killed in Minneapolis during a confrontation with federal agents from the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The incident occurred on Saturday morning.

According to police, Pretti was a U.S. citizen and a permanent resident of Minnesota. A video circulating on social media shows part of the altercation before the shooting, sparking outrage. Claims suggest that Pretti intervened to help a woman and was attacked by the agents.

Pretti worked as a nurse at the Minneapolis Veterans Hospital. Colleagues describe him as dedicated and conscientious. His family denounced the government's 'disgusting lies' about his death, while the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) claims the agents acted in self-defense.

Pretti's parents stated that their son was a kind-hearted person who cared about others and veterans.
