   A video released Wednesday appears to show Alex Pretti confronting federal   
   immigration officers on a Minneapolis street nearly two weeks before he   
   was fatally shot during a separate encounter with U.S. Customs and Border   
   Protection agents.   
      
   The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) told Newsweek via email   
   Wednesday that the agency was reviewing the video.   
      
   The video, recorded January 13 and published first by digital outlet The   
   News Movement, shows a man identified as Pretti, 37, engaging with federal   
   agents alongside other protesters. The Movement said the video was   
   independently reviewed by BBC News using facial-recognition technology,   
   which identified the man with a high degree of confidence.   
      
   Newsweek has reached out to the BBC via email Wednesday night for comment.

   In the recording, the man is seen kicking the taillight of a government   
   SUV as agents prepared to leave the scene. The vehicle then stops, and   
   officers get out and force the man to the ground. As the confrontation   
   continues, agents deploy chemical irritants while bystanders shout, honk   
   car horns and record the scene on their phones. A handgun appears visible   
   at the man’s waistband, similar to footage taken on the day Pretti was   
   killed.   
      
   The footage does not show whether federal officers detained the man   
   identified as Pretti after the January 13 encounter.   
      
   "A week before Alex was gunned down in the street—despite posing no threat   
   to anyone—he was violently assaulted by a group of ICE agents," Steve   
   Schleicher, attorney for the Pretti family, told CBS News. "Nothing that   
   happened a full week before could possibly have justified Alex's killing   
   at the hands of ICE on Jan 24."
