(gun went off in CBP agents possession for unknown reasons)
no, it didn't, even according to the CBP's own report...
so please, stop with this lie... let's stick to the facts, which this entire "misfire" is not one of
You may be correct on gun not discharging, but you are also not basing it on definitive proof.
Sticking to the facts the words I read in the report to congress did not include anything about the gun going off accidentally, but the words in the report to Congress also did not explicitly state that the gun did not go off. News reports and some here have jumped on the former while ignoring the latter.
The outline sent to congress is not really a definitive answer on the gun going off accidentally. You would think they would mention it if they knew for sure it discharged, but at same time if that is still under investigation they wouldn’t include anything on it as a fact one way or the other in the outline of “factual reports” sent to congress.
The report is an outline of known facts to date without any conclusions drawn that was sent to update Congress, and the investigation on basically any fact not yet included is or can be still in progress.

CBP told CBS News in a statement: "These notifications reflect standard Customs and Border Protection protocol and are issued in accordance with existing procedures. They provide an initial outline of an event that took place and do not convey any definitive conclusion or investigative findings. They are factual reports – not analytical judgments – and are provided to inform Congress and to promote transparency."
CBS just copied and pasted what they say is the full report or outline to its website. I have not seen any link to the actual official report.

The full report is below:
The following statement pertains to an in-custody death that occurred on Saturday, January 24, 2026, in Minneapolis, MN. This information is based on a preliminary review by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) Investigative Operations Directorate (IOD) and may be updated and clarified as additional details become available. It is being provided to Committee staff concurrently with CBP senior leadership to ensure timely reporting.
CBP OPR IOD established the following information and timeline based on a preliminary review of body worn camera footage and CBP documentation.
On January 24, 2026, United States Border Patrol (USBP) Border Patrol Agents (BPAs) and Customs and Border Protection Officers (CBPOs) supporting Operation Metro Surge were conducting enforcement actions near the intersection of Nicollet Ave. and 26th St. in Minneapolis, MN. Several civilians were in the area yelling and blowing whistles. BPAs and CBPOs made several verbal requests for the civilians to stay on the sidewalks and out of the roadway.
At approximately 9:00 a.m., a CBPO was confronted by two female civilians blowing whistles. The CBPO ordered the female civilians to move out of the roadway, and the female civilians did not move. The CBPO pushed them both away and one of the females ran to a male, later identified as 37-year-old Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a US citizen. The CBPO attempted to move the woman and Pretti out of the roadway. The woman and Pretti did not move. The CBPO deployed his oleoresin capsicum (OC) spray towards both Pretti and the woman.
CBP personnel attempted to take Pretti into custody. Pretti resisted CBP personnel's efforts and a struggle ensued. During the struggle, a BPA yelled, "He's got a gun!" multiple times. Approximately five seconds later, a BPA discharged his CBP-issued Glock 19 and a CBPO also discharged his CBP-issued Glock 47 at Pretti. After the shooting, a BPA advised he had possession of Pretti's firearm. The BPA subsequently cleared and secured Pretti's firearm in his vehicle.
At approximately 9:02 a.m., CBP personnel cut Pretti's clothing and provided medical aid to him by placing chest seals on his wounds. At approximately 9:05 a.m., Minneapolis Fire Department Emergency Medical Services (MFD EMS) emergency medical technicians (EMTs) arrived and assumed primary medical care for Pretti.
At approximately 9:14 a.m., MFD EMTs placed Pretti in an MFD EMS ambulance and he was subsequently transported to Hennepin County Medical Center (HCMC). At approximately 9:32 a.m., HCMC medical personnel pronounced Pretti deceased.
CBP OPR IOD was advised that an autopsy would be conducted by medical personnel from the Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office. CBP OPR IOD will request the official findings upon completion.
Homeland Security Investigations is investigating the incident and CBP OPR IOD is reviewing it. The Department of Homeland Security Office of Inspector General was notified.

Federal law they were breaking along with any state or local laws they were breaking but not enforced by locals to help allow the mob to obstruct ICE.

Kind of hard to get shot for carrying a gun when you’ve been disarmed.
The first one was pretty gray, this, was a bad shoot.
Having friends at BP/ICE that were cops before (local or state) they all told me how ignorant the guys were who have only done ICE or BP missions their entire career, and this was before all this craziness started. Unfortunately, I now have front row seats to what they were talking about.
The training is terribly subpar.

Good lord that was Obama in just 2010! How on earth have the democrats shifted so far off course/reality in such a short amount of time? How did we go from that to the Biden presidency in just a couple of years?

Trump. The left was always crazy but kept it just under the surface. Trump and his personality made them lose it.

And apparently made them change their stance on any and all political beliefs. I mean that speech would’ve been agreed upon by almost 95% of Americans in 2010. Now if Trump gave that same speech he’d be called Hitler

Without a flood of illegals the justification for large numbers of NGOs evaporates. These NGOs do nothing for the intended subjects. They are merely vehicles for politicians and their families to steal your tax money and line their own pockets. Since the machinery of government bureaucracy is dominated by Democrats, they are squawking because they see hundreds of billions of dollars going away.

I voted for Hilllary in the 2008 primary. Yes, I know, I am a racist for doing that. I would have been a sexist had I voted for Obama.
I voted for Hillary because I voted for Bill and Gore in 2000. I thought Obama would drag the party too far left. I was correct. It has been off the rails since.
Here is the other fact that will piss off the Moderates and Commies on this board: When I voted for Bill Clinton in 1996.....his platform is about 1 inch to the left of Trump's 2016 platform. Plus, Trump was pro gay marriage, Clinton wasn't.
Point is, the progressive left is full of violent, low IQ morons that are doing this because they are programmed useful idiots. They are a distraction from the fraud taking place and their leaders are laughing at them.

Correct, then they doxed and shite on the family of the firefighter that was killed.
