Minneapolis experiences renewed unrest as demonstrators respond to the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE officer, with dozens arrested during Friday night protests

Minneapolis has seen its third night of unrest as part of the Minneapolis protests after Renee Nicole Good death. At least 30 people were detained, identified, and later released by city police following a demonstration outside downtown hotels believed to house federal agents conducting an anti-immigration operation ordered by President Donald Trump.

The arrests occurred after 10 p.m. when police declared the protest unauthorized and repeatedly ordered the several hundred participants to disperse. Some ignored the orders and attempted to enter a hotel through a side door, according to a police spokesperson. Reports also noted that stones, snow, and ice were thrown at officers and their vehicles.

Further demonstrations are expected over the weekend in Minneapolis and across the United States, aiming to pressure ICE to leave local communities, as reiterated by Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and other Democratic state officials. The movement, known as “ICE Out for Good,” will continue honoring Renee Nicole Good, highlighting “months of unchecked violence and abuse in marginalized American communities.”

The situation has also drawn criticism from some Republicans in Congress regarding the Trump administration’s handling of Good’s death. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem quickly labeled Good’s actions as “domestic terrorism,” claiming she used her vehicle to strike the officer, who then allegedly shot in self-defense.

Senator Thom Tillis of the Judiciary Committee said, “It is highly unusual for a senior law enforcement official to reach a conclusion about an incident while the scene is still under investigation. I hope she is right, but normally, investigations are ongoing.” Videos circulating online appear to contradict the administration’s account.

Senator Lisa Murkowski also expressed concern that Minnesota investigators were excluded from the inquiry. “It is troubling that state authorities were left out,” Murkowski said. “As we mourn a life lost, a thorough investigation requires full cooperation between the Department of Justice, Homeland Security, and local officials.” The focus remains on the Minneapolis protests after Renee Nicole Good death, with authorities preparing for additional actions to ensure safety and accountability.
