Frey confirmed that some federal officers would be leaving the city following his conversation with Trump.
In a post on January 26, he wrote on X: “I spoke with President Trump today and appreciated the conversation. I expressed how much Minneapolis has benefited from our immigrant communities and was clear that my main ask is that Operation Metro Surge needs to end. The president agreed the present situation can’t continue.
“Some federal agents will begin leaving the area tomorrow, and I will continue pushing for the rest involved in this operation to go.”
Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino has said the agents who shot Alex Pretti did ‘a good job’.
Following the death of Pretti, weeks after Renee Good was shot and killed, fury has erupted across the US.
