✅ **What You’ll Learn**:
An Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer shot and killed a Minneapolis motorist on Wednesday during the Trump administration’s latest immigration crackdown on a major US city — a shooting that federal officials claimed was an act of self-defense but that the city’s mayor called “reckless” and unnecessary.
Gov. Tim Walz is expected to hold a news conference regarding the shooting. Watch the live stream in the video player above.
Videos taken by bystanders and posted on social media show an officer approaching an SUV parked in the middle of the road and trying to open the driver’s side door. Seconds later, the car drives away and another ICE officer standing in front of the car fires at least two shots toward the driver. The SUV knocked the officer backwards but not to the ground. The car then collided with two cars parked on the nearby sidewalk before crashing to a stop. Witnesses shouted obscenities, expressing their shock at what they saw.
The shooting marks a major escalation in the latest in a series of immigration enforcement operations in major US cities under the Trump administration. The killing was at least the fifth in a handful of states since 2024.
