The group of federal agents, shown in a video shared on Facebook, took the man to the ground and began punching him before at least 10 shots were fired outside Glam Doll Donuts on the south side of the city, with the man going limp.
Minnesota news outlet Bring Me The News said the man was unconscious and first responders were administering live-saving measures.
