Walz Puts Minnesota Guard on Standby After Fatal ICE Shooting in Minneapolis

A joint FBI–BCA probe is underway into the disputed ICE shooting.

Overview

  • DHS says the driver "weaponized" her vehicle and calls the incident domestic terrorism, a characterization disputed by Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey.
  • Walz issued a warning order preparing the Minnesota National Guard for possible deployment and urged residents to protest peacefully.
  • A Minnesota National Guard spokesperson says troops are making preparations to assist if ordered, but no formal request for support has been made.
  • The woman killed was identified by local officials as 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good, as questions persist over video evidence and the agent’s use of force.
  • The shooting follows weeks of intensified federal enforcement in the Twin Cities, with state and city leaders criticizing ICE tactics and coordination during the surge.
