ICE Agent Fatally Shoots Minneapolis Woman During Immigration Operation

Local officials reject the self-defense claim, citing videos that challenge federal statements.

Overview

  • The FBI is leading the inquiry as the Department of Homeland Security asserts the agent fired in self-defense during a traffic-blocking encounter.
  • Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and Gov. Tim Walz say video contradicts the federal account and demand ICE leave the city.
  • Bystander footage shows the SUV moving away as agents closed in and the officer firing three shots at close range, with no clear proof he was hit.
  • Authorities and local reports identified the victim as 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good, and Minneapolis police said she was not an enforcement target.
  • The shooting occurred during a deployment of roughly 2,000 federal agents in the Twin Cities, and protests brought clashes, chemical irritants, and arrests near the Whipple Federal Building.
