From Fox News:
Minneapolis ICU nurse Alex Pretti was shot by a Border Patrol agent on Saturday. Footage of the incident showed an agent disarmed Pretti shortly before he was killed. He entered into the initial scuffle with agents as he tried to assist another protester who had been pushed by law enforcement.
An investigation was launched into the shooting, though Bovino previously claimed that Pretti had intended to do “maximum damage” prior to his death.
“All of the video that we have seen shows him documenting it with his cell phone, which is a lawful thing to do, and the only time he seemed to interact with law enforcement is when they went after him, when he was trying to help an individual who law enforcement pushed down. So where do you have the evidence to show that he was trying to impede that law enforcement operation?” Bash asked.
“Sure, Dana, first, he was there in the scene,” Bovino replied. “He was in the scene actively impeding and assaulting law enforcement to the —”
“But that‘s not illegal,” Bash interrupted. “He wasn’t impeding it. He was filming it, which is a legal thing to do in the United States.”
“Dana, don‘t freeze-frame adjudicate this. Now, he was there for a reason. And that reason was to impede law enforcement,” Bovino explained.
