FBI Takes Lead in Minneapolis Shooting Probe Involving Alex Pretti

The FBI is now leading the investigation into the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, with Homeland Security Investigations assisting—an unusual arrangement since HSI typically handles immigration-related crimes rather than officer-involved shootings. A government report says two Customs and Border Protection agents fired their weapons, and those involved are on administrative leave. It remains unclear whether Pretti reached for a firearm during the incident, and the case is developing with ongoing updates.
