Minneapolis on Edge: Second ICE Shooting Sparks Protest
ICE shoots Venezuelan man in Minneapolis, sparking protests amid earlier deadly incident.
Minneapolis has erupted into protest after the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency shot a Venezuelan immigrant in the leg on Wednesday 15 January 2026, just four‑and‑a‑half miles north of the fatal shooting that killed mother‑of‑three Renee Nicole Good in a car on 7 January 2026. Local officials denounced the February‑stage of martial government interventions, labeling the incidents as "organised brutality." In the wake of the second shooting, 600 Minneapolis Police Department officers clashed with 3,000 federal agents, while the Minnesota Department of Public Safety’s Bureau of Criminal Apprehension announced an independent investigation. The mayor urged calm and called for ICE’s withdrawal; the city’s mayor Jacob Frey criticized federal forces on X, citing "600 MPs versus 3,000 agents".
