Some Republicans express concern over the tactics used in Minnesota and urge shooting investigation

AP News WASHINGTON (AP) — A handful of Republicans expressed growing concern Sunday about the tactics that federal immigration officials are using in Minnesota after a U.S. Border Patrol agent fatally shot a man in Minneapolis.

Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt said the killing Saturday of Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old intensive care unit nurse who protested President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown, was a “real tragedy.” Pretti was a U.S. citizen, born in Illinois.

“I think the death of Americans, what we’re seeing on TV, it’s causing deep concerns over federal tactics...

Nearly 10,300 flights canceled Sunday as massive winter storm sweeps across US

AP News LAS VEGAS (AP) — A massive winter storm made for a brutal travel day Sunday, with airlines warning of widespread cancellations and delays at some of the nation's busiest airports.

After sweeping through the South, forecasters said the storm was expected to move into the Northeast, dumping about 1 to 2 feet (30 to 60 centimeters) of snow from...

On the men’s side, Ingemar Stenmark won the slalom globe and Marcel Hirscher the overall title eight times...

Patrick Reed wins in Dubai. Money earned can go toward European tour fines for playing LIV

AP News DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Patrick Reed kept everyone at bay and closed with an even-par 72 on Sunday for a four-shot victory in the Dubai Desert Classic, his first European tour title that moves him back into the top 30 in the world for the first time since he joined LIV Golf.

Reed also made enough money from the Rolex Series event that it should cover his European tour fines for playing in the Saudi-backed rival league, assuming he can sort out a new LIV contract.

“Win early and that will take care of it,” Reed jokingly said Saturday on the topic of...

Videos of deadly Minneapolis shooting contradict government statements

AP News Videos quickly emerged showing the fatal shooting of a Minneapolis protester by a Border Patrol agent that has been widely denounced as a case of excessive force carried out by untrained federal officers. The administration says it was a case of an armed man provoking violence.

The Associated Press reviewed multiple bystander videos that show a Border Patrol agent shooting and killing 37-year-old Alex Pretti after a roughly 30-second scuffle around 9 a.m. Saturday. The videos appear to contradict statements by the Trump administration, which said the shots were fired...
