"Young reported local officials have been really strong in their opposition to Trump and pointed to to the federal invasion lawsuit filed by Minnesota on Monday. He then recapped a wild scene that had just unfolded in a residential area. This is just where ICE and a lot of the Border Patrol agents just were, Young told viewers as he walked and talked."
"As Young talked, CNN rolled footage of protesters confronting agents and yelling at them. Young said many protesters were crying, yelling, and screaming and that emotions were extremely high because the agents were only a few blocks away from where Good was shot. One protester in a a rainbow beanie could be seen flipping the middle finger to officers. Young said he saw people running through nearby alleys trying to escape being captured by ICE."
Federal rhetoric invoking 'reckoning' and 'retribution' heightened tensions amid anti-ICE protests in Minneapolis following the shooting of protester Renee Good. Minnesota filed a federal invasion lawsuit in response to federal operations. Neighbors and protesters gathered in residential areas, using whistles and vocal confrontations to impede ICE and Border Patrol arrests a few blocks from the shooting site. Protesters cried, yelled, and attempted to block agents, with some running through alleys. Law enforcement used flash bangs, pepper balls, and tear gas while making arrests, and physical clashes between protesters and agents lasted more than twenty minutes.
