US EditionSome ICE Agents Wear Body cameras...but Not Everywhere
The shooting occurred during a large federal immigration enforcement surge; officials dispute if the agent acted in self-defense amid conflicting witness accounts.
- On Jan. 7, an ICE agent shot and killed Renee Macklin, a 37-year-old United States citizen, near East 34th Street and Portland Avenue in south Minneapolis, officials confirmed.
- The deployment was part of an enforcement surge in recent weeks, with agents from across the country assigned to Minnesota amid fraud probes involving Somali residents, DHS announced Tuesday.
- Video recorded by witnesses shows an ICE agent attempting to open the purple/burgundy SUV's door, firing through the windshield as it crashed into a pole, witnesses said the woman was shot in the face, and Evan Priest heard two shots before running outside.
- Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey condemned the shooting and demanded ICE leave Minnesota, while Governor Peggy Flanagan called it extreme violence and urged unity; Representative Ilhan Omar and Governor Tim Walz also expressed dismay.
- Uncertainty over body-worn cameras has arisen because DHS has not identified the agent or confirmed whether footage exists, despite Vitello stating `The use of BWCs in appropriate circumstances may be beneficial`.
