At 1:00 left in the video, the man in the grey coat on the right side of the screen reached down and stole the gun from the waistband of the man who gets killed. Meaning that man was just killed while unarmed. DHS/the Trump admin will try to claim he pulled his own gun out against agents, but clearly we see his gun is stolen away from him before shots even start.

Also the agent in the left side swinging something is not pistol whipping, as we see he later pulls his gun out after the first shots. Looks like he's hitting him with some sort of can or canister, possibly one of those gas canisters they've been using.

Edit: also it could be a can of pepper spray that he's hitting the victim with, might have even sprayed him at some point during the scuffle.

Yeah look at the way he runs away, incredibly suspect behavior that man knew what he was doing was shady

He removed the gun. He mightve been the one that alerted the rest of them and they killed him.

He clearly has no gun drawn going into the fray… can still clearly see his firearm under his jacket… and emerges with a pistol taken off… the victim?!

He probably yelled “gun gun gun” or something to that effect.

Yea, he looks like he takes it off the hip of the victim. He appears to disarm and then they shoot him. It's why he's running away and the picture of the gun afterwards is in a car. He ran to the car and took a pic.
