NBA game in Minneapolis between Warriors and Timberwolves postponed after ICE
shooting
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) --- The NBA game between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Golden
State Warriors was postponed on Saturday afternoon following another fatal
shooting by federal immigration officers in Minneapolis.
The league announced the decision was made to "prioritize the safety and
security of the Minneapolis community" after 37-year-old Alex Pretti was killed
in a confrontation with officers on a street in a commercial district less than
two miles from Target Center, the downtown arena where the Timberwolves play.
The game was moved back by 24 hours, rescheduled for Sunday afternoon. The
Timberwolves and Warriors are also scheduled to play on Monday night.
