A mother of two is dead, an ICE agent has been publicly identified, and Minneapolis is boiling after a traffic stop turned fatal in seconds.
The Shooting
Multiple bystander videos captured the moment Renee Nicole Good tried to drive away as masked ICE agents surrounded her Honda Pilot.
According to the footage, Good reversed, then eased forward and right. Jonathan Ross opened fire-first through the windshield, then twice through the driver-side window-killing her.
Fallout & Statements
- DHS accused Good of “weaponizing her vehicle” in an “act of domestic terrorism”

- Mayor Frey called the White House narrative “bulls—“
- City Council member Jason Chavez described Good as “an observer … watching out for our immigrant neighbors”

Investigation Roadblock
Minnesota’s Bureau of Criminal Apprehension says federal authorities are refusing state involvement in the probe. Large-scale protests have entered a second day across the Twin Cities.
