|January 09, 2026
MINNEAPOLIS was on edge after the fatal shooting of a woman by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer taking part in the US government's latest immigration crackdown.
-
The Governor of the state of Minnesota called for people to remain calm and schools cancelled classes and activities as a safety precaution.
State and local officials demanded ICE leave Minnesota after 37-year-old Renee Nicole Macklin Good was shot in the head. But Homeland Security secretary Kristi Noem said agents will remain.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has deployed more than 2,000 officers to the area in what it says is its largest immigration enforcement operation ever. Ms Noem said more than 1,500 people have been arrested.
