The footage of the fatal shooting of Alex Jeffrey Pretti, said one journalist, “shows that the final act of his life was trying to help a woman who was being physically assaulted by the masked agents who would then kill him.”

In the original video of the shooting of a man in Minneapolis, identified by the Minneapolis Star Tribune at 37-year-old Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a woman in a pink coat was seen in the background filming the incident with her phone.

Drop Site News obtained footage that appeared “to come from the direction of the woman in pink filming from the sidewalk” and showed the shooting at a closer distance than the footage taken from inside Glam Doll Donuts.

In the video, the shooting victim, dressed in a brown coat and pants, is seen filming a federal agent with his phone. He’s then seen guiding another person toward the sidewalk as the agent forcefully shoves a third person to the ground.

    , it is a sober recount of the facts of the situation we’re currently in.

    It’s not sober at all, it’s an incredibly recent, heated, emotional take as per usual on these hyper political issues.

    The emotional charge is more responsibility for these terrible occurances than policy or enforcement.

      incredibly recent,

      I’ve been telling you that Trump is a fascist who wants to do this shit since 2015. Nothing recent about it, you’re just a fascist.

            Oof, ain’t that the sad state of affairs of American politics in a nutshell.

            I hope you don’t expect that cycle to end when your turn ends.
