"We're sending more officers today and tomorrow,"
"They'll arrive - there'll be hundreds more, in order to allow our ICE and our Border Patrol individuals that are working in Minneapolis to do so safely."
"If they impede our operations, that's a crime and we will hold them accountable to those consequences,"
"Of course I bear responsibility to bring down the temperature,"
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced that hundreds more federal officers will be deployed to Minneapolis to support ICE and Border Patrol personnel after the Jan. 7 fatal shooting of Renée Nicole Good. Large protests erupted and thousands marched to the shooting site. Noem warned that anyone impeding federal operations risks arrest and criminal prosecution. Supporters of the ICE agent contend he acted in self-defense as the SUV moved forward and say he followed training. Critics cite video and witness accounts they say do not show an imminent threat and call the shooting unjustified. Local leaders urged lowering tensions.
