Update on Alex Pretti's Passing: Medical Report Unveils Harrowing Details on His Cause of Death

New records are sharpening the picture of how Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti died, after days of official silence. A medical report and government documents now raise fresh questions and intensify calls for accountability.

What really happened in the final moments of ICU nurse Alex Pretti's life has remained unclear, even as protests erupted and officials said little.

Newly revealed government records are now providing additional details about the shooting, including agent identities and medical examiner determinations.

According to government records reviewed by ProPublica, the agents who fired were identified as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer Raymundo Gutierrez. Both were assigned to Operation Metro Surge, a sweeping enforcement effort launched in December.

CBP has declined to release the agents' names publicly and has shared few details about the shooting. The incident also followed another fatal shooting of a Minneapolis protester just days earlier, heightening public concern.

The most striking detail emerged days later. As reported by People, the medical examiner ruled Pretti's cause of death as multiple gunshot wounds, with the manner classified as homicide.

The report states Pretti was "shot by law enforcement officer(s)" and lists no other "significant conditions," a conclusion now intensifying demands for criminal investigations.
