Overview
- Renee Nicole Good, 37, was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis as the White House and DHS call it self-defense and city and state officials counter that videos undercut that claim.
- The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension withdrew after being told by the FBI it would not get key materials, and Mayor Jacob Frey is pressing for BCA participation to ensure transparency.
- Minneapolis police reported at least 29 arrests near a downtown hotel believed to house federal agents as the mayor urged demonstrators to remain peaceful and not “take the bait.”
- Multiple videos, including bystander footage and a clip recorded from an agent’s perspective, are being interpreted in conflicting ways, and no charges have been announced against agent Jonathan Ross.
- DHS has deployed roughly 2,000 immigration agents to the Twin Cities, and clashes over jurisdiction, rhetoric from national leaders, and protests in other cities have expanded the political stakes.
