More than a thousand protests have taken place across the United States following the death of Renee Good, who was shot by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in Minneapolis. Large crowds marched in cities including Boston, San Francisco and Portland, Oregon, with demonstrations planned in all 50 states continuing into Sunday.
In snow-covered Minneapolis, crowds swelled into the thousands, chanting slogans against ICE and calling out the name of Renee Nicole Good. The protests represent a surge of anger over the fatal incident.
On Saturday, US representatives Ilhan Omar, Kelly Morrison and Angie Craig attempted to enter a Minneapolis ICE facility but were denied entry. The politicians accused the agency of unlawfully blocking them.
The Trump administration has responded by claiming that Good was part of a shadowy left-wing network attempting to incite violence against federal agents, and suggested she may have been a paid agitator.
