ICE agents fatally shoot woman in Minneapolis, DHS says

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents fatally shot a woman in her car on Wednesday on a residential street in Minneapolis, authorities said.

Videos of the incident that were posted on social media show the woman being shot within seconds by an ICE agent who was standing at the front of her SUV when she began driving off after being told to exit her vehicle.

The shooting occurred in front of other people opposing ICE activities in Minneapolis.

Department of Homeland Security Kristi Noem and another top DHS official both claimed that the dead woman engaged in an “act of domestic terrorism” by intentionally trying to run down ICE agents.

“Today, ICE officers in Minneapolis were conducting targeted operations when rioters began blocking ICE officers and one of these violent rioters weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them — an act of domestic terrorism,” said Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin in a post on X.
