Thousands of bicyclists on Saturday pedaled past the site where Alex Pretti was shot as part of an 8.3-mile ride.
The ride, which honored the former VA ICU nurse who was shot by federal agents on Jan. 24, was organized by Angry Catfish bike shop, where Pretti was a regular.
Organizer Jarrod Alder told MPR News that 250 similar rides took place in 14 countries, including this one in San Francisco:
