Federal immigration agents shot and killed a man, later identified as Alex Pretti, in South Minneapolis this morning.

Agents deployed tear gas on the crowd that formed after the shooting. Even with the deployment of tear gas, protesters remain in the area, moving back when the tear gas is deployed and going back in when it has cleared out. There are reports of people being taken away in handcuffs at the scene.

Protesters continued with the chant “Go home now,” echoing down 27th and Nicollet Avenue.

In addition to tear gas, mace, less-than-lethal rounds and pepper balls are being used to clear the crowd that seems to be calming down a little. EMS is on the scene for an unknown person, with agents escorting them through.

Members of the Sheriff’s department arrived on the scene and were confronted by protesters.

The Minnesota Daily is at the scene.
