Video Filmed by ICE Agent Who Shot Good Emerges
The News
A video taken from the phone of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent who fatally shot a woman in Minneapolis on Jan. 7 has emerged, showing the encounter leading up to the shooting.
The video, obtained by Alpha News and reposted by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on X, shows the ICE agent stepping out of his car and approaching Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle while recording with his cellphone.

Sirens blaring and the honking of cars can be heard in the background, and a black dog is shown sitting in the rear seat of Good’s maroon SUV.
As the ICE agent moves past Good to film the license plate, Good tells him, “That’s fine, dude, I’m not mad at you,” with her left arm hanging out the window.
Another woman, later identified as Good’s wife, was seen standing nearby filming on her cellphone. She tells the agent, “That’s okay, we don’t change our plates every morning just so you know. It will be the same plate when you come talk to us later.”
She continued, “You want to come at us? You want to come at us? I say go and get yourself some lunch, big boy.”
At this point, another ICE agent approaches the SUV from the driver’s side and repeatedly tells Good to “get out of the car.” Good’s wife then tries to get into the passenger seat, but the door won’t open.
The agent filming on his phone then walks to the front of Good’s SUV as she briefly reverses and then turns the steering wheel to drive forward. The camera tilts upward, and the agent is heard shouting, and multiple shots ring out.
Reactions
Vice President JD Vance reposted the video on X, saying that it shows the agent acted in self-defense when he opened fire.
“Many of you have been told this law enforcement officer wasn’t hit by a car, wasn’t being harassed, and murdered an innocent woman,” he said. “The reality is that his life was endangered and he fired in self defense.”
During a White House press briefing on Jan. 8, Vance criticized some news media outlets for their coverage of the incident, saying that the way the shooting is being framed “puts our law enforcement officers at risk.”
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) responded to Vance’s post on Jan. 9, accusing the administration of “lying.”
“How could anyone on the planet watch this video and conclude what [Vance] says below? ... We demand justice now.”
What's Next
The FBI is investigating the incident, according to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension.

Another footage shared online shows the agent firing at Good as she drove ahead, while a second agent grabbed the door handle. The SUV subsequently crashed into two parked cars on the roadside.
The shooting, which happened during an ICE operation in Minneapolis on Jan. 7, has sparked public outrage and triggered protests against federal immigration enforcement that resulted in arrests.
Earlier this week, DHS said it launched what it described as the largest immigration enforcement operation ever carried out by the agency, with around 2,000 federal agents and officers expected in the Minneapolis area.
