Woman, 37, named after being shot dead by US immigration officer in Minneapolis

Ms Good was identified by her mother in the hours after the shooting, according to the Star Tribune.

"Renee was one of the kindest people I’ve ever known," her mother, Donna Ganger, told the newspaper.

Her death - just a few streets from where George Floyd died - has provoked a serious political firestorm, with Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey lashing out at the claims in a press conference and hitting out at Ice.

He said the claims were “bull****” before telling officers to “get the f*** out” of the US city.

The agency is carrying out a major immigration enforcement crackdown - with more than 2,000 agents deployed in a bid to uphold the law.

"They are already trying to spin this as an action of self-defence. Having seen the video myself, I want to tell everybody directly, that is bull****,” Mr Frey raged.

Ice is the federal US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency responsible for homeland security investigations.

It also carries out removal operations against illegal migrants.

The FBI has launched an investigation into the shooting, Minneapolis officials confirmed.

Multiple videos have surfaced online which appears to show the moment agents opened fire on a woman.

The videos, taken from various vantage points, show a maroon SUV parked blocking a residential street in Minneapolis.

Multiple people, who appear to be protesting, are walking along the sidewalk while one person stands in the road with their phone out appearing to record the incident.

Three pops are heard and the vehicle appears to lose control and crash into a white car parked on the side of the street.

The agent then appears to get out the way of the vehicle while people recording nearby scream.

President Trump said in a Truth Social post: "I have just viewed the clip of the event which took place in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is a horrible thing to watch. The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, wilfully, and viciously ran over the Ice officer, who seems to have shot her in self defense.

"Based on the attached clip, it is hard to believe he is alive, but is now recovering in the hospital. The situation is being studied, in its entirety, but the reason these incidents are happening is because the Radical Left is threatening, assaulting, and targeting our Law Enforcement Officers and Ice Agents on a daily basis. They are just trying to do the job of MAKING AMERICA SAFE. We need to stand by and protect our Law Enforcement Officers from this Radical Left Movement of Violence and Hate!"

Mr Trump deployed an additional 2,000 federal agents to the Minneapolis area in recent weeks in response to allegations of welfare fraud.

The deployment began on Sunday and represents one of the largest concentrations of Department of Homeland Security personnel in a US city in recent years.

Ice carried out an immigration enforcement campaign in late 2025 to target individuals in Minneapolis who were issued deportation orders, including members of the Somali community in the city.

Mr Trump called them “garbage”, adding “I don’t want them in our country. I’ll be honest with you.

“Their country’s no good for a reason. Their country stinks.”
