A recent shocking video reveals the moments before Renee Nicola Good was shot at by an immigration agent after she calmly addressed him. The footage, apparently recorded by the officer’s own camera, captures the mother-of-three driving away as the officer opens fire, with bullets hitting her windshield and side window.
Following the incident, where Ms. Good’s car collided with surrounding objects, an officer is heard using offensive language. Activists argue that the video contradicts claims that Ms. Good deliberately tried to harm the officer.
In the newly released video by Alpha News, an individual, likely Ms. Good’s partner, confronts the officer while filming him and asserting their rights. As tensions escalate, Ms. Good is seen reversing her car to allow other vehicles to pass, while officers demand her to exit the vehicle.
The incident has sparked controversy, with conflicting opinions on the events. Various officials, including Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Vice President JD Vance, have defended the ICE agent’s actions, labeling the shooting as self-defense. However, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey has dismissed the self-defense argument as baseless, prompting protests in the area.
DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin maintains that the agent acted in self-defense against a perceived threat. The incident has been described by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem as an act of domestic terrorism.
Following the release of the new footage, Vice President JD Vance reaffirmed his stance that Ms. Good posed a threat to the officer, criticizing media coverage of the incident. The situation has sparked outrage and calls for accountability from the community.
