Minneapolis was still reeling on Monday after ICU nurse Alex Pretti was shot dead during a confrontation with federal agents over the weekend.
A government report sent to Congress and obtained by CBS News said two US Customs and Border Protection agents fired their weapons.
The report did not say Pretti reached for his firearm.
Minnesota officials said Pretti was a lawful gun owner with a permit to carry and had no criminal record.
