ICE Officer Shoots Mother of Three in Minneapolis, Prompting Protests and Federal Claims

Updated (4 articles)

Incident Timeline and Shooting Details On January 7, 2026, ICE officer Jonathan Ross stopped Renee Good’s burgundy SUV on a snowy Minneapolis street around 9:30 a.m., firing first through the windshield and then through the open driver’s side window at point‑blank range [1][2]. Good, a 37‑year‑old mother of three, sustained gunshot wounds to the chest, left forearm and possibly the head before the vehicle collided with a parked car [1][2]. First 911 calls reported the shooting at 9:39 a.m., and responders arrived by 9:42 a.m. to find her unresponsive in the driver’s seat [1][2].

Medical Response and On‑Scene Tension Paramedics performed chest compressions and attempted resuscitation, moving Good to a sidewalk for better access before transporting her to a hospital roughly fifteen minutes after the initial call [1][2]. An on‑scene physician identified himself and requested to check her pulse, but an ICE officer ordered him to back up, highlighting friction between medical staff and federal agents [2]. Good was pronounced dead at the hospital around 10:30 a.m., ending emergency efforts [1].

Federal Narrative and Political Reactions DHS released a statement labeling Good’s actions as domestic terrorism, asserting she intended to use her vehicle to harm ICE agents, a claim echoed by President Trump and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem [2]. The agency also described the officer’s shots as defensive, a version contested by video evidence and eyewitness accounts [1]. Ross was removed from the scene, taken to a federal building, later to a hospital, and subsequently released [1].

Public Outcry and Ongoing Demonstrations Protesters gathered near the shooting site within hours, with pepper spray deployed around 11 a.m. and an impromptu vigil forming at the location [1]. Demonstrations spread beyond Minneapolis, drawing national attention to the federal immigration crackdown and sparking debates over law‑enforcement conduct [2]. Discrepancies between DHS’s terrorism framing and on‑ground footage have fueled criticism and calls for independent investigation [1][2].
