A newly emerged video shows Alex Pretti in a confrontation with federal agents 11 days before he was shot and killed in Minneapolis.
In the video, Pretti and others on the scene are seen shouting at agents blocking an intersection in Minneapolis on Jan. 13. Pretti is then seen kicking a federal vehicle before agents get out, push him and tackle him to the ground. Agents then fire gas into the crowd.
The agents get up and Pretti walks away, a gun visible on his waistband.
A representative for Pretti's family confirmed that Pretti appears in the video and that he had told his family about the incident. Pretti was injured in the encounter but did not seek medical attention, the representative said...
...The Department of Homeland Security told ABC News on Wednesday that Homeland Security Investigations is reviewing the video.
