Government documents have identified Jesus Ochoa, a border patrol agent, and Raymundo Gutierrez, a CBP officer, as the federal agents who fatally shot Alex Pretti in Minneapolis last weekend. The agents were participating in Operation Metro Surge, a large-scale immigration enforcement initiative. The shooting has sparked protests and calls for investigations, especially given the recent killing of another Minneapolis protester by an immigration agent. CBP has been criticized for a lack of transparency regarding the incident and the agents' identities. Following pressure from lawmakers and protests, the Justice Department's civil rights division has opened an investigation into the shooting.
