In a dramatic turn of events, cellphone footage unveiled on Friday captures the tense moments preceding the tragic shooting of a Minneapolis woman by a federal officer. This incident has further intensified the ongoing discord surrounding the Trump administration’s stringent measures against illegal immigration in the city.

The release of the video comes just 48 hours after Renee Nicole Good was fatally shot by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent. The altercation reportedly occurred as Good allegedly drove her vehicle toward the officers, igniting a swift and deadly response.

Captured from the perspective of an ICE agent, the video reveals Good’s Honda Pilot conspicuously positioned in the middle of a residential street, seemingly obstructing traffic. The footage provides a glimpse into the tense exchange, as Good can be heard calmly telling an agent, “That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad.”

These final moments of Renee Nicole Good’s life, captured on video, have been obtained by Fox News, highlighting the complexities and dangers faced by both federal agents and civilians amidst the ongoing immigration enforcement efforts in Minneapolis.

The agent walks around the vehicle to check the license plate. Seconds later, another agent walks toward the driver’s side of Good’s vehicle and orders Good to get out.

“Get out of the car. Get out of the f—— car,” the agent says.

Good then backs up the vehicle before moving it forward toward the agent wearing the body camera. He is heard saying “whoa” before shots ring out.

Good’s vehicle then crashes into a parked car.

The circumstances that led to her death have ignited a firestorm of criticism of the Trump administration and the condemnation of the ICE agents’ actions.

Federal officials have said the agents acted in self-defense and labeled the incident an act of domestic terrorism, while Democratic officials have rejected the self-defense assertion.

The agent who opened fire was dragged and injured by a fleeing driver in a separate incident last year, officials said.

He was recovering from Wednesday’s incident, officials said this week. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, however, downplayed the agent’s injuries.

“The ICE agent walked away with a hip injury that he might as well have gotten from closing a refrigerator door with his hips,” he told reporters Friday. “Give me a break. No, he was not ran over. He walked out of there with a hop in his step.” 

Authorities have said Good had been following and harassing federal officers earlier that day.

She also worked as a Minneapolis-based immigration activist serving as a member of “ICE Watch,” federal sources told Fox News.

Homeland Security sources told Fox News the group aims to monitor, track, interfere and oppose ongoing federal immigration enforcement operations. The group is present in multiple sanctuary cities across the country.
