Noem Faces Impeachment Push After Fatal ICE Shooting in Minneapolis

Investigators are reviewing bystander video after city and state officials rejected DHS claims of self-defense.

Overview

  • Rep. Robin Kelly said she will file articles of impeachment against DHS Secretary Kristi Noem in response to the shooting.
  • Renee Nicole Good, 37, was shot by an ICE agent during a Minneapolis operation and was pronounced dead at a hospital.
  • DHS labeled the incident an "act of domestic terrorism" and says the agent fired in self-defense, a characterization disputed by Mayor Jacob Frey and Gov. Tim Walz after viewing video.
  • Bystander footage shows Good’s car moving toward an agent before turning to speed away as multiple shots were fired, according to outlets that reviewed the clips.
  • Noem says DHS sent roughly 2,000 additional agents to the Twin Cities and reports more than 1,500 arrests, while protests have spread to other cities and she holds a New York news conference as investigations continue.
