Video clearly shows agent pulling gun from Alex's waistband and running off with it. 2 sec. later he is shot. As he lies motionless on his back an agent standing over him unloads 5-9 shots into his body.
A CNN video analysis appears to show a federal immigration officer removing a gun from Alex Pretti just prior to officers fatally shooting him.
At no point in any of the videos reviewed by CNN can Pretti be seen wielding a weapon; he is seen carrying a cellphone in one hand earlier in the encounter.

He never made an offensive move through the whole episode even after he got pepper sprayed.
For that he gets executed and labeled a terrorist.
Fuck Vance and Noem and Miller and the goon they work for.
