US Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino has reportedly been demoted following the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti by federal agents in Minneapolis, sparking widespread unrest. The Department of Homeland Security denies the claims, asserting Bovino remains a key figure in President Trump's immigration enforcement team.
Pretti, a 37-year-old ICU nurse and US citizen with only traffic tickets on his record, was killed on 24 January during an immigration operation, the second such incident involving Americans in Minnesota this month. The shooting has united critics in calling for investigations and transparency, with videos contradicting official accounts.
