An ICE agent involved in last week’s fatal shooting of a woman in Minneapolis is now facing death threats and has reportedly been doxxed, according to White House border czar Tom Homan. The threats have raised serious concerns for the safety of the agent’s family as tensions continue to rise nationwide.
Speaking publicly, Homan strongly defended Immigration and Customs Enforcement, saying the agent is under immense emotional strain and urging the public not to rush to judgment before investigators complete their review. He stressed that the use of lethal force is never something officers take lightly.
Footage shared online appears to show the woman, later identified as Renee Good, attempting to flee a traffic stop by driving her vehicle toward the ICE agent. Authorities say the agent was struck by the car, prompting him to fire his weapon. The woman later died from her injuries, sparking protests across multiple U.S. cities over the weekend.
Additional reports revealed that the same agent had survived a serious incident just six months earlier, when he was dragged roughly 300 feet by a vehicle driven by an undocumented suspect. That incident left him with more than 30 stitches. Supporters argue this past trauma may help explain the agent’s split-second decision during the Minneapolis encounter.
Protests in Minneapolis escalated Friday night, with police reporting that rocks and ice were thrown at officers. At least 29 citations were issued as local and state leaders condemned the violence while encouraging peaceful protest and lawful accountability.
The Department of Homeland Security confirmed that the Twin Cities operation was the largest immigration enforcement action conducted in the area to date. While Republican officials and members of the administration described the shooting as self-defense, Democratic leaders called for further investigations, policy reforms, and funding reductions—underscoring the sharp political divide surrounding immigration enforcement and public safety.
