Protests grow in Minneapolis as man shot dead by federal agents is named as Alex Pretti
The 37-year-old intensive care nurse was shot just over a mile from where an ICE agent shot and killed Renee Good, also 37, in her car on 7 January.
Alex Pretti’s family said they are “heartbroken but also very angry”, saying the "lies" by the Trump administration "are reprehensible and disgusting".
Democrats and protesters have repeated their calls for ICE to leave Minnesota in the wake of the shooting.
