Alex Pretti’s Sig handgun has history of accidentally firing — offering possible clue to why Border agent shot him

Armed Minneapolis anti-ICE protester Alex Pretti was carrying a popular handgun that has a history of unintentionally firing — leading some gun experts to suggest that the gun might have accidentally discharged after a Border Patrol agent grabbed it from him, causing another agent to open fire, killing him Saturday.

Pretti, 37, an ICU nurse angry at President Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration in Minnesota, was carrying a loaded Sig Sauer P320 9mm pistol when he allegedly tried to stop federal agents from arresting a woman on the street.

Cops said he had a permit to legally carry the gun.
