Protests have broken out nationwide in the United States after a mother named Renee Nicole Good, aged 37, was fatally shot during immigration raids in Minneapolis.
Renee, a mother of three, was killed on Wednesday while seated in a vehicle and moving forward in the direction of a masked ICE immigration enforcement officer. Republican officials, including President Trump, asserted that the officer acted in self-defense, alleging Renee had used her car as a weapon.
Mayor Jacob Frey, representing the Democratic stronghold of Minneapolis, criticized immigration authorities, demanding that ICE “get out of the city.” Renee passed away shortly after dropping her son off at school.
The Trump administration has increased funding for immigration enforcement in the United States. Contentious ICE raids have been conducted nationwide, ensnaring some American citizens in the process, leading to significant backlash and demonstrations in various states.
