A federal agent shot and killed a Minneapolis motorist when she allegedly tried to run over law enforcement officers during an immigration crackdown in the city, authorities said Wednesday.

The Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer shot the woman in her vehicle in a residential neighborhood in Minneapolis, Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement.

Video posted online showed the vehicle crashed in a residential neighborhood. The shooting drew throngs of angry protesters to the scene in an area that is the latest target of the Trump administration's immigration crackdown.

There was a large presence of federal and local officers, yellow police tape and cars that had been in a crash in the residential neighborhood. Gregory Bovino, a senior U.S. Customs and Border Patrol official who has been the face of crackdowns in Los Angeles, Chicago and elsewhere, was among the group.

“We are aware of a shooting involving federal law enforcement near East 34th Street and Portland Avenue. Please avoid this area,” the city government said on X.

In a scene similar to the Los Angeles and Chicago crackdowns, bystanders didn't hold back in venting their anger, blowing whistles, taunting the federal agents.

“Shame! Shame! Shame!” and “ICE out of Minnesota!” they loudly chanted from behind the police tape, referring to Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

After the shooting, Mayor Jacob Frey said immigration agents were “causing chaos in our city.”

“We are demanding ICE leave the city and state immediately. We stand rock solid with our immigrant and refugee communities," Frey said on social media.

The area where the shooting occurred is a modest neighborhood south of downtown Minneapolis, just a few blocks from some of the oldest immigrant markets in the area and a mile from where George Floyd was killed by police in 2020.

“We’ve been trying to live life as fully as possible in light of the fear and anxiety that we feel,” said the Rev. Hierald Osorto, pastor at St. Paul’s-San Pablo Lutheran Church, which has a predominantly Latino congregation in the area.

The Immigration Defense Network, a coalition of groups serving immigrants in Minnesota, held a training session Tuesday night for about 100 people who are willing to hit the streets to monitor the federal enforcement.

“I feel like I'm an ordinary person, and I have the ability do something so I need to do it,” Mary Moran told KMSP-TV.

The Department of Homeland Security said Tuesday that it had launched an extraordinary immigration enforcement operation, with 2,000 agents and officers expected in the Minneapolis and St. Paul area for a crackdown tied in part to allegations of fraud involving Somali residents.

We need to bring back lobotomies because these schizos are capable of looking at videos objectively showing one thing and coming up with absolute hallucinations in response.

Fr fr no cap. People acted a lot nicer and stayed in line under the threat of being interned.

Asylums kept people’s spaghetti in their pockets.

One day I fear the KiwiFarms itself will split asunder, and Thunderdomer and TERFette will go to war. Negrates and doxing will fly, TDSers will ally with OnionFarms, and the SoyJacks will offer their services to the highest bidder.

I’m sure this has been said already, but it’s wild this is even debatable if she hit him or not. You can argue whether it was intentional. You can argue whether the officer was justified. But with multiple videos from multiple angles , how can people claim she did not hit him ? I feel like everyone is truly living in alternate realities.

It's like they have some sort of brain computer virus... did the CIA crack subliminal brainwashing?

 

[clickbait]

Spoiler: My two cents

I went ahead and watched all the angles of this. Good was pretty clearly trying to flee the scene but misjudged how long it would take for her car to make the hard right turn she wanted it to and ended up impacting the officer, who panicked and shot her. In the video with the annoying-as-fuck screaming lady, you can see him just standing in front of the car with his gun drawn as it begins to move in his general direction. Then again though, that view isn’t really clear, so maybe he saw something different. I guess it’ll be up to the courts to decide whether he acted as self-defense.

(Bring on the dumb reacts lol)

He saw a deadly weapon approaching him and he did what he is trained to do: neutralize the threat.

You're reading her mind. Which is nice. Lovely even. But you're still reading her mind.

We are also reading her mind because we hope people aren't really this retarded to flee from officers while they're asking you to get out of the car. We know that people are this retarded.

Whether or not she wanted to flee is irrelevant. Her actions put the officer in danger and got her shot as a result.

That is self defense. Even if he was far enough from the car and the car was in front of him and he had plenty of time to dodge - his life is still in danger. Your life is only not in danger when you're standing still and nothing bad can happen to you.

It's like they have some sort of brain computer virus... did the CIA crack subliminal brainwashing?

NPCs have their vision and hearing guided for this video. It's easier for them to consume information without actually comprehending it.

>Look at his legs nowhere near the car!
They look at the legs.
>Look at him on the side!
They look at him on the side.
>He was never in front of the car.
They don't see him in front of the car.
>The break lights are on and his gun is drawn!!
They look at the break lights and don't see the guy and assume the information is true.
>Look he drops his phone when he shoots her!
They see the camera shake when he's hit and ignore because that's not the information that was given.
>That's not a thud of him getting hit, that's him dropping the phone when he murdered her!
They assume that is how phones sound when you drop them.
>He said fucking bitch! He meant to murder her!!!
They hear him say fucking bitch (but they don't see the context why he said that)

Etc. Etc. etc. Etc.

Years of having information spoonfed to you rather than training your own critical thinking. Believing TV shows/movies are factual in how these things happen.

It's social media and internet addiction.

Participation trophies were a fucking mistake.

Just look at the wheels bro

I think politicians are all dogshit and many cops are dangerous egomaniacs, but there's been a lot of misrepresentation of this incident.

This viewpoint neither proves nor disproves anything, but I can understand that the officer could have reason to believe that she is trying to run him over.

Then again, just because you're reasonable doesn't mean you're right.

I still cannot figure out why we're talking about people who regularly post in The Elder Scrolls thread.

 

[babyDunk]

Yes it does upset me, if your side celebrates killing mildly rowdy white women as some sort of casualty of your "zero sum game" then I don't think I want to support you

Celebrates? I though the entire debate was about whether the shooting was justified or not?

Low quality bait bud!

The moral compass of most leftists just spins in circles.

"Charlie Kirk deserved it, and so do YOU!"

"Bawww whyyyyy? Whyyyy did you shoot a white woman? She wasn't even an illegal bawwwww"

Candlelight vigils for me but not for thee.

 

[Neetness]

And nothing of value was lost. Bitch didn't even have a cool car.

 

[Sicko Hunter]

Extremely, extremely relevant quote for this entire case.

 

[I HATE THE ANTICHRIST!]

Ask anyone stupid enough to mention any of that shit about wheels to stand in front of a vehicle as close as that officer and to answer which direction the wheels are pointed. Anyone who looks down to find out is a grease stain. It's surprising that the officer was able to get out of way at all, let alone draw his weapon and terminate the threat.

If he could see the wheels then honestly that would make it even worse considering that this is the frame of the video where she steps on the gas and the wheels start turning.

They were not even fully straightened let alone turned right.

You did throw gasoline on the dumpster fire.

 

[lightbringga]

There is a reason that the legal standard is to be "in fear", rather than the legal standard being "it was necessary".

In life and death situations, it is an unreasonable standard to expect people to be able to judge what exactly is necessary and what isn't. The people who wrote the law knew it was an unreasonable standard, and so do you and I. So why think he exercised poor judgement, when we know that expecting accurate judgement in such situations not reasonable?

Rather than saying he exercised poor judgement, it would be more fair to say he exercised average judgement (poor judgement being acknowledged as the average in such life and death situations).

If he was actually in fear he would take one step to the side to avoid the vehicle (which he did). Shooting the driver accomplishes nothing to neutralize the threat, this isn't a video game the car doesn't abruptly despawn when you shoot it's driver.

I can read her mind as well right when this happened. It was “Haha Reddit will think I’m so cool an- AHHHHHHHH MY FACE!!!”

You're forgetting the "I'm doing this for my Somali sisters and brothers" before she floors it.

I DID NOTHING!

Except return the favor for them brigading this thread with their endless bullshit trolling just like they did the Kirk thread.

Mr @whoishomermynameis, you go right on uploading kino videos. Meanwhile, let’s see how much they are malding about us-

 

[Joseph Goebbels fan]

i saw the new bodycam video and the ICE dude was def hit in some way. that bootleg shrek looking whore had it coming.

 

[SOLDIER OF WALES]

The ICE agent should be given 3 medals of honors, a parade down DC and 5 million dollars. I'd also say a nubile asian maiden but apparently he already has one (military guys with asian wives enthusiast)
