A video shows an ICE agent firing his weapon through the windshield of a vehicle driven by Zyaire Good, 31, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on February 2nd, 2024. Good was later pronounced dead.

The officer appears to stay on his feet, and is later seen in other videos walking towards Good’s crashed car.

Federal officials say the agent was injured and treated in hospital.The FBI is investigating the incident.

An earlier video shows the incident from another viewpoint

The officer who fired on Good is Jonathan Ross, a veteran ICE agent who was previously injured in the line of duty when he was struck by a car.

Following the shooting, former President Trump commented on the incident, stating his support for ICE and border patrol. He did not directly address the specifics of the shooting.

On February 3rd, 2024, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene reposted the video on X (formerly Twitter), and defended the agent’s actions, saying: “The reality is that his life was endangered and he fired in self-defence.”

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt also posted on X, saying the media had smeared an ICE agent who had “properly defended himself from being run over”.

Good’s wife, Rebecca Good, told local media the pair had gone to the scene of immigration enforcement activity to support neighbours.

“We had whistles,” Rebecca Good said. “They had guns.”

When speaking about Zyaire Good – a mother-of-three, including a six-year-old son – she said “kindness radiated out of her”.

“We where raising our son to believe that no matter where you come from or what you look like, all of us deserve compassion and kindness,” she added.

On February 5th,2024,Minnesota officials said they would open an inquiry into the shooting after expressing concerns about being excluded from the federal investigation.
