Oregon lawmakers denounce federal officer’s fatal shooting in Minneapolis
Oregon lawmakers denounced a federal officer’s fatal shooting of a 37-year-old man in Minneapolis on Saturday.
The man was identified by his parents as Alex Pretti, an intensive care unit nurse. He had participated in protests following the killing of Renee Good by a U.S. Immigration and Customs officer on Jan. 7.
Bystanders captured Saturday shooting of Pretti on video, which quickly went viral Saturday. Pretti is seen with a phone in his hand, but no videos appear to show him with a visible weapon.
Federal officials said the officer who shot Pretti is an eight-year Border Patrol veteran. Department of Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement that federal officers were conducting an operation as part of the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown and fired “defensive shots” after a man with a handgun approached them and “violently resisted” when officers tried to disarm him.
During a press conference Saturday, Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek said that violent confrontations would continue in Minneapolis because of the federal government’s tactics.
“They need to pull back on the agents who are there, work with local government and resolve and de-escalate the situation,” Kotek told reporters.
In a social media post, U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden, a Democrat, said footage of the shooting “shows Donald Trump’s lawless federal agents again out of control.”
“The Senate cannot vote to keep funding this,” Wyden wrote on the social media platform Bluesky. “Every single agent complicit in these horrors should be put on trial at the state level for real accountability.”
U.S. Sen. Jeff Merkley, a Democrat, wrote on X that the shooting was “horrific” and “another senseless execution of a citizen by Trump’s lawless federal agents. Federal agents are terrorizing communities in Minnesota, Oregon, and across the country.”
Merkley also demanded the ouster of the Homeland Security Secretary: “Kristi Noem must go. Not one more penny for ICE.”
In a video posted to Facebook, U.S. Rep. Maxine Dexter, a Democrat, said, “Another person has been murdered in the streets of Minneapolis today by federal agents.”
Dexter said federal agents killed the man “in cold blood.”
In her message, Dexter also pointed to the arrest and detainment on Jan. 16 of a Gresham family, including a 7-year-old child, outside Adventist Health in Portland as the girl’s parents sought emergency medical care for her.
“We are not safer because of ICE activity and CBP activity,” Dexter said. “We are in fact being terrorized by federal agents using taxpayer dollars. It has to stop.”
U.S. Rep. Andrea Salinas, a Democrat, said in a post on X that she was “horrified and outraged” by the Minneapolis shooting.
“Trump must withdraw ICE from Minnesota immediately and impose a nationwide stand down,” Salinas wrote. “The Senate must vote to protect our communities and block ICE funding this week. Anything less is a threat to everyone nationwide.”

Federal and state agencies urge caution as fire season begins in parts of Oregon
PORTLAND, Ore. (KATU) — The Oregon Department of Forestry is asking Oregonians to be careful when disposing of yard debris this spring.

“There have already been 23 escaped debris burns for a total of 83 acres reported on ODF-protected land in 2026,” the agency said.
The agency said that at this time last year, it had responded to 37 escaped burns.
“More than 70% of wildfires every year in Oregon are human-caused, with escaped debris burns topping the list,” ODF said. “With record-low snowpack and an abnormally warm winter, forecasters are anticipating a hotter and drier summer than usual.”
The Central Oregon District of ODF has already declared the start of fire season.
On May 14, fire restrictions will go into effect for all Bureau of Land Management lands in Oregon and Washington.
“We are increasingly concerned that 2026 could rival the most extreme years on record for heat and dryness in the Pacific Northwest,” said Jeff Fedrizzi, assistant chief of operations for the Pacific Northwest, U.S. Wildland Fire Service. “Every visitor must understand that even one small spark can lead to a costly and destructive fire in these high-impact conditions.”
Officials say the restrictions will help reduce the risk of human-caused fires. BLM officials say anyone who violates the prohibition could be fined up to $100,000 and/or face up to 12 months in prison.
More information on fire season is available on the ODF website.
The Bureau of Land Management website has additional information on fire restrictions and closures.
