The family of Alex Pretti is very sad and looking for answers. The 37-year-old nurse was shot and killed by federal officers in Minneapolis on January 24.
Police say Alex came toward them with a gun and did not listen to their commands. But his family strongly disagrees. They say Alex was a kind man who cared for sick veterans at the hospital.
His loved ones say he was holding his phone, not a gun. They believe he ran toward danger just to help and protect a woman during a scary moment.
Now, many people are protesting in the city. The police are looking at video from the event to find out exactly what happened. Alex’s heartbroken family just wants to know the true story.
