Border Patrol shoot two people in Portland
Share and Follow

In a recent incident in Portland, Oregon, two individuals were shot by US Customs and Border Protection agents. This event occurred just a day following a separate incident in Minneapolis, where an ICE officer fatally shot a mother of three.

Local police were alerted to a shooting at Adventist Health Portland located on Southeast Main Street, with the call coming in at 2:18 p.m.

Authorities have verified that the shooting transpired in the hospital parking lot, according to a report by KGW.

While the exact condition of the victims remains unclear, Portland City Council President Elana Pirtle-Guiney mentioned to KATU that, to her knowledge, they are still alive.

The FBI has also confirmed that two individuals sustained injuries during the incident in the city.

‘This remains [an] active and ongoing investigation led by the FBI.’ 

Portland Police Chief Bob Day echoed those remarks, saying: ‘We are still in the early stages of this incident.’ 

‘We understand the heightened emotion and tension many are feeling in the wake of the shooting in Minneapolis, but I am asking the community to remain calm as we work to learn more.’

The shooting came as the Portland city council was in the middle of its proceedings, which abruptly came to an end as councilors learned about what happened.

Mayor Keith Wilson has since issued a statement calling the shooting a ‘deeply troubling incident.’

‘We cannot sit by while constitutional protections erode and bloodshed mounts,’ he declared. ‘Portland is not a “training ground” for militarized agents and the “full force” threatened by the administration has deadly consequences.’

Wilson then said he is calling on ICE to ‘end all operations in Portland until a full investigation can be completed.’ 

Yet the mayor urged Portland residents to respond with ‘calm and purpose,’ warning ‘Portland does not respond to violence with violence.’ 

Three city councilors who represent the region also said they are awaiting more information but the incident ‘is part of a pattern or violence that we have seen too many times across our country.’

‘As your East Portland councilors, we have stood united to protect Portlanders from aggressive immigration enforcement and federal overreach and we will continue to do everything in our power to keep our communities safe,’ they said, according to OBP.

‘We are asking our counterparts at every level of government to do the same.’ 

The shooting comes amid heightened tensions nationwide following the ICE-related shooting death of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good.

The agent responsible, identified as Jonathan ‘Jon’ Ross, has been branded a ‘murderer’ by furious Democrats but has enjoyed the full support of the Trump administration, who argue he acted in self defense when it appeared Good intended to run him down with her car.

Now, Good’s friends have revealed she was part of a network of activists coordinated through her six-year-old son’s charter school who were actively resisting ICE.

‘She was a warrior. She died doing what was right,’ a mother named Leesa who has a child at the same school as Good’s son told The New York Post.

‘[Renee Good] was trained against these ICE agents — what to do, what not to do, it’s a very thorough training.’

As part of this training, Good allegedly learned to listen to commands and to understand her rights.  

‘I know she was doing the right thing. I watched the video plenty of times but I also know in my heart the woman she was, she was doing everything right,’ Leesa said. 

In the video, agents could be seen approaching Good’s stationary vehicle, asking her to exit, and one tugs at the door handle as she starts to reverse.

Ross stands in front of the car and draws his weapon, pointing it at Good as she starts moving forward. She strikes him with the car as he opens fire. Good’s Honda Pilot crashed nearby and she was declared dead at the scene.

Ross is an ‘experienced’ officer who last year suffered gruesome injuries as he tried to arrest an illegal immigrant sex offender.

‘He’s the same ICE agent who got dragged by car 50 feet back in June, so he has a history,’ an FBI agent who spoke to the Daily Mail on condition of anonymity confirmed.

The FBI agent noted that he does not believe Ross was justified in his shooting of Good. 

‘Shot one, sort of can be argued, but shots two and three – they cannot be argued.’
