"On Friday, the front page of The Minnesota Star Tribune featured an image of two Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents pinning a Minneapolis protester to the street as one agent aimed a canister of pepper spray directly in his face. The Tribune's Richard Tsong-Taatarii took the image on Wednesday, as demonstrations continue across Minnesota in response to the presence of several thousand federal agents in the largest immigration enforcement operation in U.S. history, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)."
"Earlier this month, 37-year-old Renee Good was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis. A preliminary private autopsy found that she was shot at least three times. Federal officials continue to defend the agent's actions as self-defense, claiming the agent felt Good was trying to ram him with her car, despite footage that shows space between the vehicle and the officer."
"On Tuesday, federal agents took a five-year-old boy and his father into custody in the driveway of their Minneapolis home, just as the child was returning from preschool. According to the family's lawyer, the father and son presented themselves to border officers in December of 2024 to apply for asylum. They are now being held at an ICE facility in Texas."
