Two federal agents fired at protester Alex Pretti during Saturday’s fatal shooting in Minneapolis, according to a preliminary review by a Department of Homeland Security internal watchdog, which made no mention that the intensive care nurse brandished a weapon before he was killed.
The preliminary review, conducted by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Office of Professional Responsibility, was sent to Congress Tuesday and appeared to contradict claims made by the Trump administration in the immediate aftermath of the shooting.
