and said he has seen videos from several angles and it is sickening. He is defending MN residents who are following the law and said that the state of MN must be in charge of the investigation.

Tim Walz unleashes after deadly shooting: ‘We’re creating a log for future prosecutions’

Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz announced Saturday that plans were already underway to hold ICE and immigration agents criminally “responsible” for their actions following the deadly shooting earlier that morning.

In Minneapolis, 37-year-old Alex Jeffrey Pretti was shot and killed by federal immigration officers after being wrestled to the ground and beaten. Video of the shooting spread wildly on social media and has sparked outrage across the nation.

In a press conference after the incident, Walz revealed that a “log of evidence” was being created for the explicit purpose of criminally prosecuting federal immigration officers involved with the shooting.

“Despite the horrific act by this federal government, Minnesotans are standing up for the rule of law; they're protesting loudly and urgently, but peacefully. It must stay that way, Minnesota,” Walz said.

“We're creating a log of evidence for the future prosecution of ICE agents and officials responsible for this. I call on all Americans to see the decency that this state is exhibiting, and the horrific cruelty, unprofessional, absolute abomination that is passing for what these ICE agents are doing on our streets. They think they can provoke us into abandoning our values. Well, they're dead wrong. We'll keep the peace, we'll secure justice with our neighbors, and we'll see this occupation end.”
