MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA: Newly released records show Renee Nicole Good was shot four times during a confrontation with an ICE agent in south Minneapolis. First responders found Good inside her SUV with multiple gunshot wounds, and despite lifesaving efforts, she did not survive.

The shooting occurred on a residential street when ICE officer Jonathan Ross fired at Good. The Minnesota Star Tribune reports she sustained two shots to the right chest, one to her left forearm, and one to the left side of her head, with protruding tissue noted by responders. Blood was seen coming from her left ear as paramedics arrived.

Records show Good was shot four times

According to 911 transcripts, callers described the scene as chaotic. One said, “She’s (expletive) dead. They (expletive) shot her.” Responders noted her pulse was irregular and inconsistent.

Video from multiple angles appears to show Ross fired three shots: one through the front windshield and two through Good’s open driver-side window, including the shot to her head. Experts note a single bullet can create multiple wounds.

Paramedics arrived at 9:42 am, four minutes after 911 calls began. The records include transcripts from the Minneapolis Police and Fire Departments capturing urgent calls: “They just shot a lady. Point-blank range in her car,” one caller said. Another added, “There’s 15 ICE agents and they shot her, like, cause she wouldn’t open her car door. There’s video of it too.”

State leaders question ICE actions after fatal incident

Federal authorities said Good attempted to run over the officer, justifying the shooting as self-defense. ICE confirmed Jonathan Ross was injured during the incident.



Minnesota officials strongly criticized the federal account. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said ICE should “get the f**k out of Minneapolis” and questioned the federal explanation of the shooting.

Governor Tim Walz also criticized ICE for “pulling over people indiscriminately, including US citizens,” highlighting concerns about federal enforcement practices. A week after Good’s death, a separate ICE traffic stop involved another shooting when a Venezuelan man allegedly fled and assaulted an officer.
