New Video and FBI-Only Probe Deepen Dispute Over Minneapolis ICE Killing

Local prosecutors report being cut off from evidence in an FBI-run investigation.

Overview

  • A 47‑second clip recorded on the ICE agent’s phone and other angles, verified by Reuters, show Renee Good speaking calmly before her SUV moves and shots are fired, with interpretations of danger to the officer sharply divided.
  • Federal officials, including DHS and the White House, describe the incident as self‑defense and a 'weaponized' vehicle, while Minneapolis leaders and Good’s wife reject that portrayal, with her statement saying they stopped to support neighbors and had whistles.
  • Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty says state and local investigators were denied access to case materials and the vehicle, and she is soliciting public submissions of videos and other evidence.
  • The shooter has been identified as ICE agent Jonathan Ross; he has not been reported as charged, and officials say he was treated and released after the incident, as protests and vigils continue nationwide.
  • A witness told People that ICE agents kept bystanders from rendering aid by brandishing weapons and that an ambulance was delayed, accounts that add to calls for transparency about the operation and its aftermath.
