US EditionHomeland Security to send hundreds more officers to Minnesota, Noem says
Homeland Security is deploying hundreds more officers to protect ICE and Border Patrol amid protests after an ICE officer fatally shot Renee Good, following a recent surge of 2,100 agents.
- On Jan 11, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security announced it will send "hundreds more" officers to Minneapolis on Jan 11 and Jan 12 to bolster ICE and U.S. Border Patrol safety.
- After the Jan 7 shooting of Renee Nicole Good, tens of thousands of demonstrators marched in Minneapolis and more than 1,000 rallies were planned nationwide.
- Exact totals remain unclear, including whether some incoming officers overlap with reported Border Patrol additions, as DHS previously dispatched 2,100 ICE and DHS officers earlier this month.
- Minnesota officials on Jan 9 announced a criminal investigation and criticized the FBI for excluding local investigators, while Jacob Frey, Minneapolis Mayor, told ICE to `Get out` and disputed self-defense claims.
- Amid sharp federal-local tensions, DHS describes its presence in Minneapolis as one of its largest operations ever, with some 2,000 federal officers dispatched amid alleged sex and child trafficking concerns.
