DHS Sends Hundreds More Agents to Twin Cities After ICE Shooting

The deployment builds on a force of more than 2,000 already in place under Operation Metro Surge.

Overview

  • The FBI is leading the investigation into the killing of Renee Nicole Good by ICE agent Jonathan Ross, while Minnesota officials say they have been restricted from evidence.
  • Large demonstrations continued near federal facilities, with law enforcement using tear gas and pepper agents outside the Whipple Federal Building.
  • Local reports and activist alerts described door-to-door enforcement activity in St. Paul, and video showed Border Patrol commander Gregory Bovino on city streets.
  • DHS says Operation Metro Surge targets social‑services fraud alongside immigration enforcement and reports roughly 1,500 arrests since Dec. 1.
  • Minnesota leaders pressed for transparency and oversight, including calls to involve state investigators and accounts that members of Congress were denied access to an ICE site.
