CNN analysis of Alex Pretti murder [View all]

Video clearly shows agent pulling gun from Alex's waistband and running off with it. 2 sec. later he is shot. As he lies motionless on his back an agent standing over him unloads 5-9 shots into his body.

A CNN video analysis appears to show a federal immigration officer removing a gun from Alex Pretti just prior to officers fatally shooting him.


At no point in any of the videos reviewed by CNN can Pretti be seen wielding a weapon; he is seen carrying a cellphone in one hand earlier in the encounter.
