Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem characterized the incident as self-defense against an "act of domestic terrorism," while Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey rejected that account as "garbage" and demanded federal agents leave the city, The Associated Press reported.

Wednesday's fatal shooting of a Minneapolis driver by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer has generated sharp conflict between federal authorities defending the action as self-defense and city officials condemning it as "reckless" excessive force, The Associated Press reported.

Hospital documentation obtained by The Associated Press named the deceased as 37-year-old Renee Good (although hospital records showed the name as Renae Macklin-Good). Immediate family outreach yielded no responses.

Digital profiles revealed Macklin Good characterizing herself as a "Poet and writer and wife and mom" whose Colorado origins preceded her current "experiencing Minneapolis," accompanied by a pride flag emoji, according to The Associated Press. Her profile imagery captured her beaming while holding a young child close to her face.

The lethal encounter swiftly mobilized hundreds of furious protesters and marks at least the fifth death stemming from President Donald Trump administration's intensified immigration enforcement campaign initiated last year, The Associated Press reported.

Witness footage recorded from multiple vantage points and circulated via social media platforms shows an officer moving toward a Honda Pilot stopped mid-roadway, commanding the driver to unlock the door while attempting to pull the handle, according to The Associated Press. When the SUV began advancing, a separate ICE officer positioned ahead of the vehicle unholstered his firearm and discharged at least two rounds into the vehicle at point-blank range, jumping aside as the vehicle approached him. The footage left ambiguous whether vehicle-officer contact occurred, The Associated Press reported. The SUV subsequently collided with two curbside parked vehicles before halting. Onlookers screamed profanities, voicing shock at the scene.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem maintained the officer fired defensively after the woman "attempted to run them over and rammed them with her vehicle," labeling her actions an "act of domestic terrorism," according to The Associated Press. President Trump disparaged the woman through social media. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, however, dismissed Noem's framing as "garbage" and insisted federal agents withdraw, The Associated Press reported. Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara provided reporters a cursory shooting description but suggested nothing indicating the driver meant to injure anyone. Minnesota Department of Public Safety Commissioner Bob Jacobson announced state authorities would probe the incident jointly with federal investigators, according to The Associated Press.
