A frame-by-frame break down of the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti - Velshi - MS NOW
Alex Pretti was described by the government as approaching federal agents with a handgun when he was shot dead. But the video released since the incident shows Pretti with his hands empty when interacting with officers. Fmr. NYPD Lt. Darrin Porcher says in “no way, shape, or form,” does Pretti approach officers with any sort of threat. - Aired on 01/25/2026.
