There is currently no reliable public information that clearly states where Alex Pretti is from (for example, his exact hometown or place of birth). What is known from recent news and public posts is that he was a 37‑year‑old intensive care nurse who worked at the Minneapolis VA Health Care System, caring for veterans, and that he was identified as the man fatally shot by a U.S. Border Patrol officer in Minneapolis in January 2026.

Because major reports and public statements so far focus on his profession, age, and the circumstances of the shooting—rather than his origins—any specific claim like “he was from X city/state” would be speculation at this point.
