Chaos descended upon Minneapolis Wednesday after a female protester was shot and killed by federal immigration officers after she allegedly attempted to mow them down with her vehicle, dramatic video shows.
Renee Nicole Good, 37, was shot dead by an ICE agent at East 34th Street and Portland Avenue, and footage from the scene appears to show her striking the officer with her car before he opened fire through the vehicle’s window.
President Trump and Homeland Security officials said the unidentified agent who opened fire did so in self-defense after being struck by Good’s car.
“It is hard to believe he is still alive, but is now recovering in the hospital,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
The unrest began when “violent rioters” flooded the streets attempting to impede ICE’s “targeted operations” in Minneapolis, DHS Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin said, and intensified after Good was shot.
One protester was seen on video setting an American flag ablaze, while others lobbed snowballs at police officers and federal agents. Another was struck with pepper balls after trying to snatch a weapon from an officer.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and other local Democrats — including embattled lame-duck Gov. Tim Walz — blasted the feds over the morning ICE raid and Good’s shooting.
“To ICE, get the f–k out of Minneapolis. We do not want you here,” Frey said during a press conference after the shooting.
“Your stated reason for being in this city is to create some kind of safety, and you are doing exactly the opposite.”
