Officer who fatally shot Minneapolis man during protest is an 8-year Border Patrol veteran, federal officials say
The shooting of Renee Good during a federal immigration crackdown sparked widespread protests and calls for agency accountability amid aggressive enforcement operations.
- On Saturday, Jan. 24, 2026, federal agents in the Whittier neighborhood shot and killed a man near Nicollet Avenue and 26th Street, sparking hours of protests.
- The shooting came amid an expanded federal enforcement operation in Minneapolis, marking the third deadly encounter involving federal immigration agents in roughly two and a half weeks.
- DHS described the encounter as a struggle in which the man was armed with a 9 mm semi-automatic handgun and two magazines, while videos and witnesses showed agents wrestling him and using a chemical irritant before gunshots sounded.
- Federal agents deployed tear gas, pepper spray and other chemical irritants during clashes as several hundred protesters gathered by noon, while Minnesota State Patrol and Minneapolis Police Department kept over 100 separated and made at least two arrests before federal agents withdrew shortly before 1 p.m.
- Senator Amy Klobuchar and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey urged federal forces to leave while U.S. Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino defended agents and officials questioned training of approximately 2,000 federal agents.
