An Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer reportedly shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis on Wednesday who had connections to the Kansas City area.
Minnesota News Network reported the victim has been identified as Renee Nicole Good, 37, who lived in Minneapolis with her partner. Good was identified later by her mother, Donna Ganger.
KMBC-TV in Kansas City reported the vehicle involved in the shooting was registered in Kansas City, Missouri. The station confirmed the details through vehicle records from a federally-recognized source.
According to Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin, ICE officers were “conducting targeted operations” when community members began blocking ICE vehicles. McLaughlin said the agent “fired defensive shots” after the woman allegedly attempted to run over agents.
CBS News reported that Good was in a Honda Pilot when she was approached by ICE agents. When an agent attempted to open the driver’s side door, Good put the vehicle into reverse before putting it into drive. Witnesses heard several gunshots, then the SUV rolled into another vehicle and a power pole.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey condemned the shooting, saying DHS is already trying to spin this as an act of self-defense.
“Having seen the video myself, I want to tell everybody directly that is bull****. This was an agent recklessly using power that resulted in somebody dying.”
Earlier, Frey expressed outrage toward ICE’s presence in the city, saying: “Get the f*** out of Minneapolis.”
On Truth Social, President Trump defended ICE’s actions.
“The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot her in self defense,” said Trump.
DHS said the incident remains under investigation.
