FBI Takes Control as Videos Undercut ICE Account in Minneapolis Shooting

The bureau is leading the probe over state objections following footage that challenges the DHS claim of self‑defense.

Overview

  • Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen, was shot and killed by an ICE agent during a Minneapolis operation, with verified videos showing a third agent firing three times at close range as her SUV moved.
  • DHS and President Donald Trump say Good used her vehicle as a weapon and call the incident terrorism, while Mayor Jacob Frey and Police Chief Brian O’Hara dispute that and demand ICE leave the city.
  • The FBI is running the investigation and removed Minnesota’s Bureau of Criminal Apprehension from the scene, drawing objections from state officials including Attorney General Keith Ellison and Governor Tim Walz.
  • Large demonstrations continued in Minneapolis and spread to other U.S. cities, with clashes reported outside a federal building in St. Paul where chemical agents and crowd-control rounds were used.
  • The killing occurred during a DHS “Metro Surge” that deployed roughly 2,000 federal agents to the Twin Cities, and it follows a series of ICE-involved shootings reported since 2024.
