Overview
- Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said hundreds more federal officers will arrive in Minnesota, with NBC News reporting roughly 2,000 already deployed and a stated focus on pursuing protesters who impede operations.
- Multiple videos, including one recorded on the shooter’s phone, show Good’s SUV beginning to turn as shots are fired and capture an officer using a slur moments before the killing.
- President Donald Trump, Noem and Vice President J.D. Vance defended the shooting as self-defense, described Good as violent or a terrorist, and raised the idea of “absolute immunity” for the agent.
- The ICE officer has been identified as Jonathan Ross, and federal officials have kept the inquiry under exclusive FBI control as Minnesota authorities undertake a separate criminal review.
- Large demonstrations have spread across U.S. cities, and confrontations outside an ICE facility in Minneapolis included officers using pepper spray on protesters.
