Chaos and Protests in Minneapolis After Federal Immigration Enforcement Actions
Tensions in Minneapolis have surged following two separate shootings involving Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, fueling ongoing protests and clashes between residents and federal law‑enforcement officers.
Recent Developments
Earlier this week, a Venezuelan man was shot in the leg by an ICE agent in north Minneapolis during an encounter that federal officials describe as a struggle between the individual and law enforcement. The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension has launched an independent investigation into that incident as details continue to unfold.
This latest shooting follows the fatal January 7 incident in which ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot and killed 37‑year‑old Renee Nicole Good, an American citizen, during an immigration enforcement operation in south Minneapolis. Video and multiple accounts have sparked intense debate over whether the use of lethal force was justified. Good’s family has criticized federal authorities, hired legal counsel known for civil rights cases, and called for accountability as public outrage has grown.

Community Response and Protests
In response to both shootings and the broader federal enforcement presence, crowds have repeatedly gathered in Minneapolis neighborhoods. Demonstrations have at times included confrontations with law enforcement, use of tear gas and crowd‑control tactics by federal agents, and arrests. Local leaders, activists, and residents have voiced deep concern about the impact of federal immigration operations on their communities.
Reactions from Leaders
President Donald Trump has defended the expanded federal presence and enforcement actions, characterizing the situation as complex and referring to the incidents as “sad to see on both sides” while defending ICE operations.

At the same time, federal prosecutors and Justice Department officials have resigned in protest over how investigations into these incidents have been handled, reflecting internal disagreements over transparency and accountability.
Local officials, including the mayor of Minneapolis and Minnesota’s governor, have called for restraint and peaceful protest while criticizing the federal strategy and calling for clarity around use of force by ICE agents.
