"Police officers "responded to the reports of shots fired and found a woman with life-threatening gunshot wounds to the head. Minneapolis firefighters then removed the 37-year-old victim from the vehicle and immediately began lifesaving measures until paramedics could respond. She was transported to Hennepin County Medical Centre, where she later died.""
"Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, during a visit to Texas, described the incident as an "act of domestic terrorism" carried out against Ice officers by a woman who "attempted to run them over and rammed them with her vehicle. An officer of ours acted quickly and defensively, shot, to protect himself and the people around him"."
"President Donald Trump, in a social media post, said he had viewed video footage of the incident and criticised the woman who was shot as acting "very disorderly, obstructing and resisting" and "then violently, wilfully, and viciously" running over the Ice officer."
Federal agents shot Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old US citizen, in her SUV in a residential neighbourhood south of downtown Minneapolis. Video circulating online shows ICE agents approaching the vehicle as she attempts to turn and pull away, after which a masked agent carrying an assault rifle fires into the vehicle. Good lived in Minneapolis with her partner and was the mother of a six-year-old child. Police found her with life-threatening gunshot wounds to the head; firefighters removed her and she was later pronounced dead at Hennepin County Medical Centre. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem characterized the incident as an "act of domestic terrorism," while the Minneapolis mayor called federal self-defence claims "bulls***." President Donald Trump said he viewed video footage and criticised the woman as acting violently and running over an ICE officer.
