Protests continue in Minneapolis amid fallout over deadly ICE shooting

preCharge News MINNESOTA — Minneapolis is reeling after an ICE agent fatally shot a woman on the city’s south side Wednesday morning. The victim, 37-year-old Renee Good, described herself as a “poet and writer and wife and mom” who had recently moved from Kansas City, Missouri.

The agent who shot Good was a member of a specially trained tactical unit within ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations, a senior Department of Homeland Security official confirmed to preCharge News. He was previously dragged by a car when trying to arrest a man in Bloomington, Minnesota, six months ago. Court records from that incident indicate that the officer the DHS says shot Good was Jonathan Ross.

Here’s the latest on the Minneapolis ICE shooting

Thousands of people are at an “ICE out of Minnesota” rally and march in Minneapolis on Saturday afternoon.
Three Democratic Congress members from Minnesota were denied access to an ICE facility at the Whipple Federal Building in Minneapolis on Saturday.
Minneapolis city officials said 30 people were detained, cited and released during demonstrations downtown on Friday night. One police officer suffered minor injuries while responding to the protest, though they did not need medical attention.
Mayor Jacob Frey said on Saturday morning that protests have been mostly peaceful.
Minneapolis leaders, along with Gov. Tim Walz, are pushing for the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension to be part of a joint investigation with the FBI. While they were originally slated to work together, the BCA accused the federal agency of cutting off their access to case materials, such as scene evidence and interviews, forcing them to withdraw from the probe. The case will now be investigated exclusively by the FBI.
The killing and the influx of ICE agents in the city has led to several protests over the last few days. Thursday evening, hundreds of people marched in freezing rain chanting “ICE out now.” Tensions also boiled over at the Whipple Federal Building in Minneapolis, where ICE is running their operation. Several people have been arrested. Late Friday evening, police say at least 30 people were detained and later released amid protests in downtown Minneapolis.
Minneapolis Public Schools and Fridley schools are closed on Friday. Educators with Minneapolis called on federal agents to stay away from school property following reports of ICE agents tackling people on the grounds of Roosevelt High School on Wednesday, hours after Good’s killing.
U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem characterized Good’s actions as an “act of domestic terrorism.” President Trump claimed that Good “ran over” an officer, sharing a video that does not show any officer being run over. Other videos posted to social media of the deadly encounter corroborate witness accounts over Trump and DHS claims. Mayor Jacob Frey said he’s seen the videos of the incident as well and called the federal agency’s narrative of the events “bulls**t.” Walz added, “Don’t believe this propaganda machine.”
