Large protests have taken place in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in recent weeks following violent altercations between civilians and federal immigration officers. In one episode over the weekend, 37-year-old local ICU nurse Alex Pretti was fatally shot by a Customs and Border Protection agent, marking the second such incident in the city after the killing of Rene Nicole Good earlier this month.
Gregory Bovino, the commander-at-large of Border Patrol, said the CBP agents involved in the incident will likely be assigned to administrative duties despite the outrage sparked by Pretti's death.
