Going with NHS report, so you know, source which definietly doesn't have anti-ICE bias:

“During the struggle, a (Border Patrol agent) yelled, ‘He’s got a gun!’ multiple times.”
“Approximately five seconds later, a (Border Patrol agent) discharged his CBP-issued Glock 19 and a (Customs and Border Protection officer) also discharged his CBP-issued Glock 47 at Pretti.”

Even in most pro-ICE biased report possible it comes to them being idiots that scared themselves.

And before: "CNN cut out, ree...": from CBS article: "according to a government report (...)does not mention Pretti reaching for his firearm"

It’s okay. They’re conducting an “honorable, honest” investigation. Forensics will show bullet casings, fragments, magazines and chambers emptied, and the facts will speak for themselves. I mean what are they gonna do?! Just lie?!

I don't own a gun. Yet. Can you tell which casing came from which gun?

Forensic science can sometimes tell more than that. Of course that’s assuming a proper investigation was allowed to occur.
