Pretti’s killing comes less than three weeks after Renée Good, 37, was fatally shot by an ICE officer elsewhere in the city, another incident already pulled into competing official and eyewitness accounts.

In footage verified by several news outlets, Pretti is seen directing cars to park and coming to the aid of a woman who falls near federal agents.

The Department of Homeland Security in the US has, in official statements and press conferences, stated that Pretti approached agents with a 9mm handgun drawn.
