Alex Pretti's cause of death was recently revealed by the Hennepin County Medical Examiner as homicide.
The medical report shared more about how Pretti passed away from several gunshot wounds after being shot by federal law enforcement officers during a protest in Minneapolis on January 24.

Federal authorities claimed at the start that Pretti approached Border Patrol agents with a firearm and resisted their efforts to disarm him during an operation.
