Eyewitness footage captured the shocking moment an intensive care unit nurse was gunned down by federal agents in Minneapolis, leaving a city reeling from the senseless violence.

... what's going on here is absolutely insane! I mean, can you imagine being an ICU nurse just doing your job and then suddenly getting caught in the crossfire with some agents? It's like something out of a bad movie. And now Alex Pretti is gone and no one knows for sure why it happened 
... officials are all over the place, saying different things about what went down. It's like they're trying to cover something up or protect each other's butts 
... I don't get it. As a society, we should be better than this. We should be able to trust our law enforcement and know that they're not just going to shoot people willy-nilly without cause 
. This whole thing is just so messed up...
I don't get it. this whole thing just feels so... wrong. and now the city is reelin from it... Minneapolis, like, one of the coolest cities in the States 
... i feel bad for pretti's family, he was just doing his job as an icu nurse... and now we got these border patrol agents saying they had no choice but to shoot him, but eyewitnesses are saying it was like a straight-up ambush 
... how can the authorities just cover their own backsides like this? 
. What's going through their minds, man? The eyewitness footage is straight-up brutal - you can see the fear and panic in Pretti's eyes just before he gets shot 
. And now multiple theories about what happened leading up to it... it all feels like a huge cover-up 
. Can we please get some real answers on this one? This kind of thing is supposed to be handled by our law enforcement, not shoot first and ask questions later 
.
. First off, I think we need more transparency from our authorities about what really went down that day. It's not cool that multiple narratives are coming out and it's hard to know what's true and what's not 
.
.
. We need to get to the bottom of what happened and hold those responsible accountable 
. My heart goes out to Alex's family and loved ones 
.
. It feels like they're trying to spin a story that doesn't add up at all.
. The eyewitness footage is pretty damning, but apparently, the agents' version of events is very different 
. We need to get to the bottom of this and make sure justice is served 
.
like, can we please just get some facts for once? 
i mean, sure maybe he had a gun or something, but it doesn't excuse the fact that they shot him multiple times
