A senior US immigration official is expected to leave Minneapolis after the fatal shooting of a second US citizen by federal agents. Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino is set to depart as President Donald Trump assigns border adviser Tom Homan to lead efforts on the ground. The move follows the death of Alex Pretti during an immigration operation on Saturday. Officials said agents fired in self-defence, a claim disputed by witnesses and the victim’s family. Trump has since spoken with state and city leaders and said talks were positive. Federal raids have continued, though pressure has grown for an independent investigation. (PC: BBC)
