明尼阿波利斯警察局长称联邦探员致命枪击事件后“民众已受够”

华盛顿—— 明尼阿波利斯警察局长布莱恩·奥哈拉周日表示,在本周末联邦探员枪杀一名37岁男子后,“民众已受够了”。

联邦探员周六上午在明尼阿波利斯开枪打死了重症监护室护士亚历克斯·普雷蒂(Alex Pretti)。这起枪击事件发生之际,明尼苏达州最大城市持续抗议联邦移民执法力度激增。本月早些时候,移民和海关执法局(ICE)探员开枪打死了雷妮·古德(Renee Good),一名委内瑞拉移民据称试图逃跑时腿部被子弹击中。

美国国土安全部表示,探员是在试图解除普雷蒂武装时出于自卫采取行动的,而地方官员对此说法提出异议。

奥哈拉在《玛格丽特·布伦南的面对国家》节目中表示,“正在发生的事情令人深感关切。”

“这是一名城市居民。他似乎正在行使其第一修正案赋予的记录执法活动的权利,同时也在合法地在城市公共场所携带武器(第二修正案权利),”奥哈拉说,“所以我认为,显然存在着许多严重的问题。”

奥哈拉补充道,“更大的问题是,即使调查最终证明枪击时的行为合法,我认为这在目前并不重要,因为民众对城市中发生的事情感到极大的愤怒和担忧。”

“这是不到三周内的第三起枪击事件。明尼阿波利斯警察局去年一整年从街头收缴了约900支枪,逮捕了数百名暴力犯罪者,而且我们没有开枪打死任何人。而现在,这是第二名美国公民被杀害,也是三周内的第三起枪击事件,”奥哈拉说。

奥哈拉还表示,“民众一直在发声,说这种情况还会再次发生,我认为每个人都在等待双方人员能够走到一起,解决这个问题。”

“这是不可持续的,”他说,“我们这个警察局只有600名警察。我们被极大地分散了精力。在必须管理所有这些混乱的同时,还要作为一个大城市的警察局,这给我们带来了巨大的压力,这太多了。”

当被问及是否呼吁ICE离开明尼阿波利斯时,奥哈拉表示,问题不在于“执法行动正在发生”,而在于“这些事情发生的方式”。

“这些策略显然不安全,并且在社区中引发了大量的愤怒和恐惧,”奥哈拉说。

国土安全部部长克里斯蒂·诺姆周六在新闻发布会上表示,普雷蒂持有枪支和弹药,并指控他袭击了警官。当被问及是否知道武器是隐藏携带还是被挥舞时,奥哈拉说:“我没有看到任何证据表明武器被挥舞。”

特朗普政府官员还指责当地执法部门未能为ICE探员提供足够帮助。奥哈拉称这些指控“令人深感失望”。他辩称,当地警察“正在尽一切努力管理这种混乱”,但被部署到该市的数千名移民探员远远多于他们。

在地方和联邦官员之间相互矛盾的说法和紧张局势中,奥哈拉表示,警察局“没有从联邦执法部门获得任何关于所发生事情的官方信息”,并补充说,当警察对周六枪击事件现场做出反应时,“我们的值班指挥官甚至没有得到执法部门涉及枪击事件中通常会提供的最基本信息。”

“我不知道我该如何向公众分享他们没有向我们提供的信息,”奥哈拉说。

路易斯安那州共和党众议员多数党领袖史蒂夫·斯卡利斯周日也出现在《面对国家》节目中,他指出“一些失败的地方领导”,称“在其他城市的联邦移民执法行动中,不会发生这类事件”。

“看,我们都对明尼阿波利斯发生的事情感到难过,而且这类事件反复发生,”斯卡利斯说,“几年前他们让自己的城市陷入混乱,似乎他们所在的地方一直都很混乱,而其他城市不会这样。”

Minneapolis police chief says “people have had enough” after fatal shooting by federal agents

Updated on: January 25, 2026 / 12:41 PM EST / CBS News

Washington — Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara said on Sunday that “people have had enough” after this weekend’s fatal shooting of a 37-year-old man by federal agents.

Federal agents in Minneapolis shot and killed Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse, on Saturday morning. The shooting came as protests have continued in Minnesota’s largest city over a federal immigration enforcement surge. Earlier this month, Renee Good was fatally shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent, and a Venezuelan migrant was shot in the leg by ICE while allegedly trying to flee.

The Department of Homeland Security said agents were acting in self-defense while trying to disarm Pretti, while local officials have pushed back on the account.

O’Hara said on “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan” that it’s “deeply concerning the things that are being said.”

“This is an individual that was a city resident. It appears that he was present exercising his First Amendment rights to record law enforcement activity and also exercising his Second Amendment rights to lawfully be armed in a public space in the city,” O’Hara said. “So I think very obviously, there are serious questions that are being raised.”

O’Hara added that “the greater issue is, even if there is an investigation that ultimately proves that at the time of the shooting it was legally justified, I don’t think that even matters at this point, because there is so much outrage and concern around what is happening in the city.”

“This is the third shooting now in less than three weeks. The Minneapolis Police Department went the entire year last year, recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds and hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn’t shoot anyone. And now this is the second American citizen that’s been killed, it’s the third shooting within three weeks,” O’Hara said.

O’Hara added, “People have been speaking out, saying that this was going to happen again, and I think everyone is kind of waiting for folks on both sides to come together and just figure this thing out.”

“This is not sustainable,” he said. “This police department has only 600 police officers. We are stretched incredibly thin. This is taking an enormous toll trying to manage all of this chaos on top of having to be the police department for a major city. It’s too much.”

Asked whether he is calling on ICE to leave Minneapolis, O’Hara said the problem isn’t that “enforcement is happening, it’s clearly the manner in which these things are happening.”

“These tactics are very obviously not safe, and it is generating a lot of outrage and fear in the community,” O’Hara said.

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said at a news conference Saturday that Pretti was in possession of a gun and ammunition and alleged he assaulted officers. Asked whether he knows if the weapon was concealed or was brandished, O’Hara said, “I don’t have any evidence that I’ve seen that suggests that the weapon was brandished.”

Trump administration officials have also accused local law enforcement of not doing enough to help ICE officers. O’Hara called those claims “deeply disappointing.” He argued that local police are “doing everything that we can to manage this chaos,” but are vastly outnumbered by the thousands of immigration agents deployed to the city.

Amid the conflicting narratives and tension between local and federal officials, O’Hara said the police department doesn’t have “any official information from federal law enforcement about what has happened,” adding that when officers responded to the scene of Saturday’s shooting, “our watch commander was not given even the most basic information that is typical in a law enforcement-involved shooting.”

“I don’t know how I’m supposed to share information with the public that they are not sharing with us,” O’Hara said.

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, a Louisiana Republican, also appeared on “Face the Nation” Sunday and pointed to “some failed local leadership,” saying, “you don’t have these kinds of incidents in any other city” with federal immigration enforcement operations.

“Look, we are all just feel sorry about what happened in Minneapolis, and this has happened over and over again,” Scalise said. “They let their city burn down years ago, they have chaos it seems like all the time in places where other cities don’t.”
