Minneapolis shooting. ICE agents shot Alex Pretti. Media analyse footage of the incident

On Saturday, January 24, a tragic event occurred during a protest in Minneapolis. Agents of the Customs and Immigration Office (ICE) utilized firearms. As a result, a 37-year-old man, Alex Pretti, was fatally shot.

"Fearing for his life and the life and safety of his colleagues, an agent fired shots in self-defense. Medical paramedics immediately provided the man with medical assistance, but on the place was found dead" – the Department of Homeland Security, who besides reported that Pretti "was resisting violently" in attempts to disarm.

"This looks like a situation in which the fishy wanted to do as much harm as possible and massacre the officers," said an authoritative message from the department, in which it was mentioned that the 37-year-old had no papers on him, but 2 magazines were found with him.

The situation has caused large controversy. Surveillance footage from the scene went online. According to an analysis of Reuters' information agency, the materials in Alex Pretti's hand show not a weapon, but a phone. The agency's representatives assessed that 1 of the ICE agents "pulled any object from Pretti's belt and then rapidly distanced himself", while "a while later 4 shots were fired towards a 37-year-old".

According to TVN24's CNN analysis on the video, it can be noted that "one of the officers falls into a crowd of another officers attempting to overpower Pretti and pulls out a weapon that matches the description of the firearms that the Homeland safety Department owned Pretti". CNN employees estimated that 1 of the officers was expected to scope for a 37-year-old belt, and at the same time a group of agents attempted to overpower a man.

"A small over a second after an officer walks distant with a weapon [Pretti], there is simply a shot, and then, according to video recordings, at least 9 more," states the station, stressing that it is not entirely clear whether the officer of the ICE who took the weapon (37-year-old had a licence for it), notified the fact of the another agents, and adding that the question of who gave the first shot remains unclear.

"None of the recordings watched by CNN show Pretti with a gun. Earlier in the course of the incident, you can see that he holds a mobile telephone in 1 hand" – assessed as part of the analysis.

A wave of outrage after a commentary by Dominika Tarczyński. Roman Gierty announces decisive steps

After the release of the footage in the media, it got messy. 1 of the recordings presenting the activities of ICE agents was made available by Euro MP Dominik Tarczyński, adding his own comment to the approval of the officers:

"Good occupation ICE! FAFO [f**k around, find out – ed.]".

Tarczyński's comment from the scene provoked outrage among another politicians. Adrian Zandberg, Co-Chairman of the organization Together, wrote plainly: "It is essential to be moral zero to print something like this. Jarosław Kaczyński, are you going to proceed to tolerate this animal in the ranks of your party?"

In a akin tone, not only the second co-chairman, Alexander Owec, spoke; the another left-wing groups besides expressed outrage.

"Really, this is what the Law and Justice wants for Poland? Murdering innocent people by erratic militias on the streets? No Polish organization who wishes well Poland to praise specified a fall of civilization should let in its ranks" – the sheep thundered.


Roman Gierty couldn't take it either. The MP and lawyer responded to Dominic Tarczyński's comment, publically announcing the submission of a announcement on this matter.

"Enough. I'm filing a notification on this degenerate. Anyone who approves of execution is subject to criminal liability. Qualification can be 2 depending on how we specify ICE actions. 126a kk in 118a paragraph 1 point 1 or 255 par.3 kk" is active – indicated Gierty [we have preserved the first spelling – ed.].



The paragraphs indicated by Giertych concern public acknowledgment or call for crime or wrongdoing.
