North Carolina Republican calls for 'thorough and impartial' investigation after latest Minneapolis shooting

Sen. Thom Tillis called for a thorough, impartial investigation into a fatal Minneapolis shooting involving a CBP agent, urging federal, state, and local cooperation and warning against rushing to judgment. The Trump administration says the agent fired defensive shots at 37-year-old Alex Pretti, an intensive care nurse, and that a gun was recovered; critics cite video of Pretti recording ICE officers beforehand. Tensions have escalated and demonstrations continue. Minnesota’s Bureau of Criminal Apprehension says its agents were blocked from the scene, and a federal judge ordered the administration not to destroy or alter evidence amid growing scrutiny.
