On-Air Emotion Over Minneapolis ICE Shooting Highlights Family’s Loss as Officials Defend Agent

A televised exchange drew fresh attention to disputed accounts of why an agent fired into Renee Good’s moving vehicle.

Overview

  • MS NOW contributor Philip Bump fought back tears while describing a photo of stuffed animals in Renee Good’s glove compartment and reflecting on her child.
  • Video from the scene shows agents surrounding Good’s SUV during an ICE operation and an officer firing multiple rounds as the vehicle moved.
  • ICE and DHS say the officer acted in self-defense and that the vehicle was used as a weapon, a claim Minneapolis leaders have publicly challenged.
  • The FBI is directing the investigation while Minnesota’s Bureau of Criminal Apprehension reports limited access to evidence and interviews.
  • President Trump and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem defended the agent and cited a prior vehicle attack on him, as critics continue to demand transparency and accountability.
