New Footage Fuels Outrage After ICE Agent Kills Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis. A new bystander video has surfaced showing the moments around the fatal shooting of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good, who was killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026, and it’s reigniting outrage and protests across the city and beyond. Good, a mother of three, was shot and killed along Portland Avenue during a federal immigration enforcement operation. Multiple angles of the incident have now been shared publicly: in one clip, federal agents approach her SUV as she sits in the vehicle, and within seconds an agent fires multiple shots. After she was struck, bystanders tried to help, including a man who identified himself as a doctor and asked to check her pulse, but federal agents refused to let him assist, telling him emergency medical services were on the way. In the roughly 30-second aftermath captured on video, no medical care is seen being administered to Good.

The Department of Homeland Security has defended the agent’s actions, saying Good “attempted to use her vehicle as a weapon” and that the shooting was in self-defense. But local officials and community leaders have flatly rejected that version of events, with Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey saying footage does not support the claim that Good posed a lethal threat. Good’s family and supporters say she was helping neighbors and community members, not engaging in violence. Her mother described her as a compassionate and loving person who “cared about everyone”, and her wife has spoken openly about the emotional horror of witnessing the shooting. The shooting has sparked ongoing protests in Minneapolis, with demonstrators demanding transparency, justice, and for ICE to leave the city. City and state leaders are also pushing for local officials to be involved in the investigation, after federal authorities kept state investigators from accessing evidence. This incident comes amid broader controversy over expanded federal immigration enforcement operations in Minnesota, and many activists fear the tactics used here set a dangerous precedent for how federal forces interact with civilians.

The latest cell phone recording of Renee Good’s fatal shooting by an ICE officer revealed that she had a dog in her vehicle during the incident.

The confrontation was captured on video by an ICE agent, who was circling the Honda Pilot while Renee sat in the driver’s seat. Renee’s wife, Becca Good, was standing outside of the vehicle talking to the agent, and the since-released footage shows a black dog sitting in the backseat watching with the window rolled down.

The incident quickly escalated when Renee began to move her car, prompting an agent who has since been identified as Jonathan Ross to fire his weapon at her. The vehicle continued driving away after Renee had been shot and crashed down the road. A voice behind the camera is then heard saying, “F—ing bitch.”

A Minneapolis resident who lives near the site of the shooting tells PEOPLE that they asked Becca shortly afterward whether she had anyone she could call. Becca replied, “That’s my wife. They shot her in the f—-ing head, dude. This is ridiculous!”

Similar to other accounts of the aftermath, the neighbor says Becca told them she and Renee had recently moved to Minneapolis, and that they had a 6-year-old in school.

As SWAT team members approached the scene and began yelling at bystanders to get back, Becca began screaming, “My wife!” according to the neighbor, who asked to remain anonymous. Becca then started to stand up and said, “There’s a dog in the back. Can someone get it for me, please?”

Soon, the neighbor says, Becca retrieved the dog and sat with it on the steps of a nearby house as officials continued to assess the scene.

Becca released a statement about the shooting on Jan. 9, writing that she and Renee — the latter of whom had three children from two previous marriages — recently moved to Minnesota “to make a better life for ourselves.”

“What we found when we got here was a vibrant and welcoming community, we made friends and spread joy,” she said. “And while any place we were together was home, there was a strong shared sense here in Minneapolis that we were looking out for each other. Here, I had finally found peace and safe harbor. That has been taken from me forever.”

Becca also shared how the two ended up encountering ICE on that fateful day.

“On Wednesday, January 7th, we stopped to support our neighbors,” she wrote. “We had whistles. They had guns.”

Renee suffered gunshot wounds to the head, ABC News reported, citing city officials. While video from the scene showed officers stopping a man who identified himself as a doctor from offering her care, she was ultimately transported to a local hospital and pronounced dead.

Becca wrote, “Renee leaves behind three extraordinary children; the youngest is just six years old and already lost his father. I am now left to raise our son and to continue teaching him, as Renee believed, that there are people building a better world for him. That the people who did this had fear and anger in their hearts, and we need to show them a better way.”

“We thank you for the privacy you are granting our family as we grieve,” she concluded. “We thank you for ensuring that Renee’s legacy is one of kindness and love. We honor her memory by living her values: rejecting hate and choosing compassion, turning away from fear and pursuing peace, refusing division and knowing we must come together to build a world where we all come home safe to the people we love.”
