Just before the tip-off of an NBA game on Thursday, a moment of silence dedicated to Renee Nicole Good was disrupted by chants of “go home ICE.” The chaotic scene unfolded as the Minnesota Timberwolves were about to face the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old mother of three, was fatally shot on Wednesday while in her SUV, which was obstructing a residential street amid protests against an ICE operation. Her death has sparked a significant outpouring of grief and tributes.

As a gesture of respect and remembrance, the Timberwolves organized a moment of silence for Good before the game. However, the atmosphere quickly shifted as sections of the crowd broke into cheers and applause, coinciding with a tribute video displayed on the Target Center’s jumbotron.

Addressing the audience prior to the game, Minnesota Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch remarked, “As we all know, our community has suffered yet another unspeakable tragedy.” His words echoed the somber mood that has gripped the community in the wake of Good’s death.

Speaking before the game against the Cavaliers, Minnesota head coach Chris Finch said: ‘As we all know, our community has suffered yet another unspeakable tragedy.

The Minnesota Timberwolves’ game on Thursday descended into chaos after chants of ‘go home ICE’ where heard during a minute silence for Renee Nicole Good

Good, 37, was named as the woman shot dead by ICE in Minneapolis on Wednesday 

‘We want to just convey our condolences and heartfelt wishes and prayers and thoughts to the families and loved ones and all of those that are greatly affected by what happened.’ 

As reported by the Daily Mail, the ICE agent who fatally shot Renee Nicole Good has been identified as Jonathan ‘Jon’ Ross.

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

Videos that emerged on Wednesday showed agents approaching Good’s stationary vehicle, asking her to exit, while one tugged at the door as she started to reverse.

Ross stood in front of the car and drew his weapon, pointing it at Good as she started moving forward, which is when he opened fire. Good’s Honda Pilot crashed nearby and she was declared dead at the scene.

Minneapolis has remained on edge since Good’s death, with protesters gathered outside the city’s immigration court on Thursday for further demonstrations.

Activists were seen carrying signs and chanting, including some signs that say, ‘ICE Out Now,’ ‘We deserve to be safe in our community,’ and ‘Resist Fascism.’

Chants included ‘We Keep Us Safe,’ ‘ICE Out Now,’ ‘ICE Go Home,’ ‘Quit Your Job’ and ‘Justice Now!’

Good, 37, was shot three times in the face at a protest in Minneapolis and died at the scene

Good and her wife, Rebecca, moved to the area just last year and enrolled their six-year-old boy in classes at the woke charter school 

Schools have cancelled classes and activities as a safety precaution as Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has issued calls for people to remain calm. 

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has deployed more than 2,000 officers to the area in what it says is its largest immigration enforcement operation ever. 

Meanwhile, on Wednedsay, Stephen A. Smith sparked controversy after claiming the ICE agent who shot Good dead was ‘completely justified’ from a legal standpoint.

Smith added, however, that if the agent had enough time to step out the way, which he appeared to, he should have shot the tyres instead of taking aim directly at Good, a 37-year-old mother-of-one, who died behind the wheel of her car after she was shot three times in the face. 

‘I saw the video on numerous occasions and seeing what transpired from a lawful perspective, as it pertains to a law enforcement official, don’t expect him to be prosecuted. He was completely justified,’ Smith said in a 25-minute video uploaded to his YouTube channel.

But the ESPN analyst continued: ‘From a humanitarian perspective, however, why did you have to do that? If you could move out the way, that means you could have shot the tyres. That means you could have got a few feet away after you shot the tyres and if you were unsuccessful at doing that you could have got her down the road.

‘She wasn’t driving down the road, coming at you 90 miles an hour, she was parked in the middle of the street. Rather than get out the car, she wrongfully tried to drive off. And wrongfully disregarded a law enforcement official because that it was ICE is and as a result, lost her life because of it.’
