Minneapolis cancels school for the week after deadly ICE shooting

Minneapolis Public Schools closed for safety after ICE enforcement operation that included tear gas and pepper spray at Roosevelt High School, impacting hundreds of students and staff.

  • On Thursday, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem defended an ICE officer who killed 37-year-old Minneapolis mother Renee Nicole Macklin Good Wednesday and vowed enforcement operations would continue.
  • Kristi Noem said individuals had followed, harassed and blocked Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers all day Wednesday, framing the incident as part of vehicle rammings she calls domestic terrorism and urging the Department of Justice to prosecute.
  • Bystander video shows an officer approach an SUV and grab the door as a second ICE officer fired at close range into a Honda Pilot SUV, though footage does not clearly show contact with the officer.
  • On Thursday, the U.S. Attorney’s Office barred the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension from the probe, with the FBI now leading, as critics call for charges and officials cite immunity.
  • Amid rising federal-local tensions, St. Paul sent a Dec. 19 cease-and-desist to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to stop using city parking lots, while the St. Paul Police Department said it did not assist federal operations.
