Shame!”People gather for a vigil following a shooting by an ICE agent during federal law enforcement operations on January 07, 2026 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. David Berding via Getty ImagesEarlier that day, the Department of Homeland Security said that an ICE agent had fatally shot a woman, who has been identified as 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good, as the Trump administration has surged hundreds of federal officers into the state of Minnesota. DHS has claimed that the shots were fired in self-defense as Good allegedly tried to run an agent over during an ICE operation, a narrative that Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey dismissed as “bullshit.” As HuffPost’s Ryan Grenoble reported, video of the incident from bystanders appears to undercut DHS’s claim and shows the woman reversing, turning her vehicle to leave and pulling forward when an agent fires at her. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) said that Good, a U.S. citizen, was a “legal observer” of ICE’s actions.

Attendees left flowers and candles, while chanting statements including “Say it once. Say it twice. We will not put up with ICE,” according to CNN. And demonstrators also carried posters calling for ICE to leave the state, where agents have been deployed amid Trump’s vocal concerns about alleged fraud and repeated disparagement of Somali people. Speakers at the Minneapolis gathering also called for people to stand together and to continue working to protect members of the community who’ve been targeted by immigration operations.
