ICE officer who shot Renee Good in Minneapolis is suffering from internal bleeding
Ema Alice: The Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer who shot Renee Good, a Minneapolis woman whose death has sparked outrage across the country, suffered from internal bleeding after the incident, a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) official confirmed with The Hill.
The extent of ICE officer Jonathan Ross’s bleeding remains unclear. Video taken of the incident showed Ross walking up and down the street after Good was shot and killed.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said following the shooting on Jan. 7 that Ross was hospitalized after the shooting. Noem claimed Good struck the officer with her SUV, which she later called an act of “domestic terrorism.”
“The officer was hit by the vehicle,” Noem told reporters at a press conference Jan. 7. “She hit him. He went to the hospital. A doctor did treat him. He has been released.”
Good’s death drew condemnation and has expanded Minnesota’s growing tensions with the federal government, which was previously focused on a growing welfare fraud scandal.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D) said that most protests in his city, which have drawn thousands of protesters since Good was killed, have been peaceful. They carried on through the weekend, with some protesters facing off with federal officers, who have deployed tear gas while clad in helmets and carrying batons.
Frey and other state and local officials have told ICE to stop its operations in Minnesota. Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison said Monday that the state sued the Trump administration to block a federal immigration enforcement surge in the Gopher State.
“This has to stop,” Ellison said. “Let’s be clear: it never should have started. These agents have no good reason to be here.”
DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin called it “astounding that the Left can miraculously rediscover the Tenth Amendment when they don’t want federal law enforcement officers to enforce federal law.”
President Trump, who has also defended Ross since Good’s death, told CBS News’s Tony Dokoupil that her actions “were pretty tough” before she was killed.
“I would bet you that she, under normal circumstances, was a very solid, wonderful person,” Trump told Dokoupil in a message to Good’s father, a supporter of the president. “But her actions were pretty tough.”
