US EditionDriver shot in Minneapolis is at least the fifth person killed in US immigration crackdown
The shooting is the fifth death linked to the Trump administration's immigration crackdown, sparking protests and disputes over the agent's use of force, officials said.
- On Wednesday, an unidentified Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent fatally shot 37-year-old U.S. citizen Renee Nicole Good in a Minneapolis, Minnesota neighborhood, marking at least the fifth death since the Trump administration's immigration crackdown last year.
- DHS officials, including Kristi Noem, defended the shooting as self-defense and said the woman tried to ram agents in an "act of domestic terrorism" during the DHS operation in Minneapolis.
- According to video reviewed by investigators, two masked federal officers approached Good's stopped car, one grabbed the door handle, the vehicle reversed then moved forward while a third officer fired three times through the driver's window.
- The U.S. Attorney's Office barred the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension and said the investigation will be led solely by the Federal Bureau of Investigation after the BCA 'reluctantly withdrew'.
- About 1,000 demonstrators gathered near the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building in Fort Snelling Thursday, chanting at armed officers while law enforcement used tear gas and smoke devices.
