Alex Pretty Shooting: Outrage and Protests in Minneapolis - ICE 'Mistakes' Embroil Trump

The death of Alex Pretty, a nurse shot by federal agents in Minneapolis, has sparked outrage and protests. Pretty's family described him as a generous soul who cared deeply for others, while colleagues highlighted his dedication to the veterans he cared for. Video footage of the shooting appears to contradict the Trump administration's claims that Pretty had attacked the officers. The Department of Homeland Security asserts that Pretty approached the officers with a weapon, but the videos suggest otherwise. The case has triggered strong reactions and questions about the use of force by authorities.
