"DW Fact Check has analyzed two videos, and explains why Trump's assertion is clearly false. A viral video from Minneapolis in the US state of Minnesota is circulating on social media. It shows a confrontation that took place on January 7, in which an officer of the US immigration enforcement agency ICE shot a 37-year-old white American woman called Renee Nicole Good in her car. She was declared dead in hospital shortly afterward."
"Claim: "[] the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot her in self defense. Based on the attached clip, it is hard to believe he is alive []," wrote Donald Trump on his profile on the social media platform Truth Social. He also published a 13-second clip to support his claim. In it, we see a dark-colored SUV driving toward an officer."
An ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis on January 7; she died in hospital shortly afterward. President Donald Trump posted a 13-second clip and claimed Good violently ran over the ICE officer and was shot in self-defense. Careful review of two videos shows the clip Trump shared was slowed and can give the false impression that the officer was run over at the five-second mark. The full footage makes it clear by the eight-second mark that the officer was not run over, so Trump's assertion is false.
