Man killed in new Minneapolis shooting; DHS says victim was armed

A man was shot and killed in Minneapolis on Saturday in an incident involving federal law enforcement, who said the man was armed.

Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a 37-year-old intensive care nurse and Minneapolis resident, was shot several times in the chest before he was taken to the hospital, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara told NewsNation, The Hill's cable news partner.

The shooting comes weeks after a federal immigration enforcement officer shot and killed a woman, resident Renee Good, setting off widespread protests in the Twin Cities amid escalation tensions between federal and local officials.
