Killing of Renée Good

On January 7, 2026, Renée Nicole Macklin Good, a 37-year-old American woman, was fatally shot in Minneapolis, Minnesota, by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent Jonathan Ross. Good was in her car, stopped sideways in the street when Ross walked around it and then walked back and around her vehicle. Other agents approached, and one ordered her to get out of the car while reaching through her open window. Good briefly reversed, then began moving forward and to the right, into the direction of traffic. At this point, Ross was standing at the front-left of the vehicle and fired three shots, killing her, as her vehicle passed him, turning away from him. The killing sparked national protests and multiple investigations. Federal law enforcement officials and President Donald Trump defended the shooting, saying the agent acted in self-defense, that Good ran him over, and that the agent was recovering in a hospital. Their accounts of the shooting were contested by eyewitnesses, journalists, and Democratic Party lawmakers, some of whom called for criminal proceedings against Ross. The president and federal officials were criticized for espousing conclusions before any investigation had occurred. Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey and Minnesota governor Tim Walz called on ICE to end their presence in the city. The killing sparked widespread protests in Minneapolis, and other US cities including Chicago, New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, and Washington, D.C. Marches in Minneapolis prompted the closing of public schools and the deployment of more police officers. Federal agents used tear gas and pepper spray against protesters, and Governor Walz placed the National Guard on standby. Leaders of the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division declined to open a constitutional investigation, which led more than a dozen federal prosecutors in Minneapolis and Washington to resign in protest. Minnesota attorney general Keith Ellison, along with the cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, filed suit against the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to halt ICE deployments. The incident intensified national debate over immigration enforcement and renewed calls to abolish ICE.

• Renee Good was shot in the head, autopsy commissioned by her ...

  Members of law enforcement work the scene following a suspected shooting by an ICE agent during federal law enforcement operations on Jan. 7, 2026 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Good, 37, was fatally shot in the driver’s seat of her SUV during an encounter with Jonathan Ross, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer, in a residential part of Minneapolis on Jan. 7. The shooting followed the deployment of thousands of immigration officers to the Twin Cities. The encounter, which was captured on cellphone videos, showed Good’s partner — who was outside the SUV — calling Ross “big boy” and telling him to show his face. Other officers at the scene could be heard telling Good to get out of the car, and she could be seen turning the steering wheel away from Ross and beginning to drive. [...] One of the injuries was to Good’s left forearm, the lawyers said in a statement, while another gunshot struck her right breast without piercing major organs. Neither of those wounds was immediately life-threatening, the attorneys said. A third shot entered the left side of Good’s head near the temple and exited on the right side, according to the statement, and she also appeared to have sustained a graze wound. The attorneys said the autopsy was conducted by a “highly respected" and credentialed independent medical pathologist. [...] Multiple gunshots could be heard before Good’s SUV crashed into a parked vehicle. On a video recorded by Ross, a male voice could be heard saying “f-----g bitch” moments before the crash. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem accused Good of being a “domestic terrorist” without providing evidence and said Ross acted in self-defense. He was treated at a hospital for injuries he sustained in the incident and was released soon after, Noem said shortly after the shooting. A DHS official later told NBC News that Ross sustained internal bleeding but did not elaborate on his injuries. In an email Wednesday night, DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin accused Good of refusing to comply with officers' commands.
