Renee Nicole Good, who was tragically shot and killed by a U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer last week, was found with four gunshot wounds, according to an incident report from the fire department, as reported by the Minnesota Star Tribune.

The report from the Minneapolis Fire Department detailed that the 37-year-old sustained two gunshot wounds to the right side of her chest, one to her left forearm, and another on the left side of her head, where tissue was protruding. Additionally, blood was observed flowing from her left ear.

Earlier accounts of the incident suggested that Good had been shot three times during the encounter on January 7.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) explained that the ICE officer discharged their weapon in self-defense after Good allegedly used her Honda Pilot SUV in a threatening manner. DHS stated that video evidence showed Good obstructing ICE officers by positioning her vehicle to block federal vehicles on the roadway.

When another agent asked her to get out of her car, DHS said Good accelerated in the direction of Ross, prompting the officer to open fire.

Paramedics found Good unresponsive inside her car at 9:42 a.m., with blood on her face and torso, according to the report. She was not breathing, and her pulse was described as “inconsistent” and “irregular.”

Emergency responders moved Good from her vehicle to a snowbank and then onto a sidewalk to create “separation from an escalating scene involving law enforcement and bystanders,” according to the report.

At that point, Good was “still not breathing and pulseless,” the report said.

Lifesaving efforts continued at the scene, inside an ambulance and later at Hennepin County Medical Center. CPR was discontinued at the hospital at 10:30 a.m., according to the report.

The ICE officer suffered internal bleeding to his torso when he was struck by her vehicle, DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin confirmed to Fox News on Wednesday. The extent of the bleeding was not immediately clear.

The incident has sparked heated debate across the country and sparked several violent attacks on immigration enforcement agents.

Meanwhile, Good’s family is now being represented by the Chicago-based law firm Romanucci & Blandin, which also represented George Floyd’s family. The firm said its founding partner, Antonio M. Romanucci, is representing Good’s partner, Becca Good, as well as her parents and siblings.

The firm helped secure a $27 million settlement for Floyd’s family in a civil case against the City of Minneapolis, the largest pretrial civil rights wrongful-death settlement in U.S. history at the time.
