Clash over access as federal agents fatally shoot a Minneapolis man

Federal agents fatally shot a 37-year-old Minneapolis man during a targeted operation; DHS says the suspect approached with a handgun and resisted, while the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension says federal agents blocked access to the scene despite a judge’s warrant. The deceased, identified as Alex Pretti, was an ICU nurse with no criminal history. Gov. Walz urged a state-led investigation as protests began, a Timberwolves game was postponed, and National Guard was placed on standby as the FBI and BCA coordinate on the investigation.
