Overview
- Thousands marched in Minneapolis and dozens of other cities on Saturday, with about 30 arrests reported locally and most demonstrations described as peaceful.
- The FBI assumed sole control of the case and barred Minnesota’s Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, prompting a separate state investigation and calls for joint access to evidence.
- DHS says ICE agent Jonathan Ross acted in self-defense and was struck by Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle, citing officer-shot cellphone video released after the shooting.
- Bystander videos circulating online appear to show Good trying to drive away, and officials including Mayor Jacob Frey, Gov. Tim Walz and Rep. Ilhan Omar dispute the federal account.
- National groups and public figures amplified calls to curb or abolish ICE, as Texas Gov. Greg Abbott warned against “defiant” protests and Minnesota lawmakers pressed for oversight of ICE facilities.
