FBI Leads Probe as Protests Grow Over ICE Killing in Minneapolis

Minnesota officials announced a separate state inquiry following their exclusion from the federal investigation.

Overview

  • Cellphone video recorded by ICE agent Jonathan Ross and released by the White House shows the encounter and shooting that killed Renee Nicole Good.
  • DHS and the administration say Ross fired in self-defense during a vehicle attack, a claim labeled as domestic terrorism by Secretary Kristi Noem, which local officials and witnesses dispute.
  • Renee Good, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen described by family as a poet and mother, was unarmed according to reports and is seen in videos attempting to leave the scene.
  • Demonstrations spread nationwide through the weekend, with Minneapolis police reporting about 30 arrests and minor officer injuries after hotel confrontations linked to where agents were believed to be staying.
  • Three Minnesota members of Congress said ICE and DHS blocked their oversight visit to a Minneapolis facility as the FBI leads the federal case and the state opens its own review.
