Overview
- Federal investigators are reviewing witness videos that show an agent firing at close range into a moving Honda Pilot without clearly showing the vehicle striking an officer.
- The victim was identified as Renee Nicole Macklin Good, 37, a U.S. citizen and mother, whom local authorities say was not a target of the operation.
- DHS says more than 2,000 agents were deployed and over 1,500 arrests were made, while Secretary Kristi Noem and President Trump characterize the shooting as defensive and label the driver’s actions “domestic terrorism.”
- Minneapolis leaders, including Mayor Jacob Frey and Police Chief Brian O’Hara, reject the federal account, demand ICE leave the city, and call for accountability as schools cancel activities and Governor Tim Walz readies the National Guard if needed.
- Reporting places the death as at least the fifth tied to recent nationwide raids, and legal experts note potential hurdles to prosecuting a federal agent due to immunity claims and possible removal of any state case to federal court.
