Minneapolis shooting: Disconnect between DHS claim, witness video

A 37-year-old Minneapolis man was fatally shot by a Border Patrol agent Saturday morning. FOX 9's Tim Blotz takes a look at how the DHS claims of self-defense appear to differ from eyewitness video.

State officials demand transparency 

What they're saying:

"Federal agents are not above the law and Alex Pretti is certainly not beneath it," said Attorney General Keith Ellison, emphasizing the need for a transparent investigation. 

Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty stated, "Our office has jurisdiction to review this matter for potential criminal conduct by the federal agents involved and we will do so."
