Driver Killed By ICE Agents In Minneapolis Identified As Renee Nicole Good
The driver killed by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent Wednesday (January 7), has been publicly identified as 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good.
Her identity was confirmed by her mother and local officials following the shooting in south Minneapolis.
According to Good’s mother, Donna Ganger, she was a resident of the Twin Cities and “extremely compassionate.”
“Renee was one of the kindest people I’ve ever known,” Ganger said, via the Minnesota Star Tribune. “She was extremely compassionate. She’s taken care of people all her life. She was loving, forgiving and affectionate. She was an amazing human being.”
According to the Star Tribune, Good had previously been married to Timmy Ray Macklin Jr., who died in 2023 at the age of 36. Macklin’s father, Timmy Ray Macklin Sr., told the outlet he was shocked by the news. He said Good and his son shared a child who is now 6 years old.
The identity of the ICE agent has not been identified.
Details Surrounding The Incident
Good was shot and killed during a large federal immigration enforcement operation in Minneapolis. Federal officials say the ICE agent fired in what they described as self-defense during an encounter with Good’s vehicle, alleging she posed a threat.
Witnesses told WCCO that whistles sounded around 9:30 a.m. to alert neighbors to ICE’s presence. They explained a Honda Pilot was blocked by multiple federal agents and that an agent attempted to open the driver’s side door.
The driver then allegedly shifted into reverse and then into drive. Witnesses reported hearing three gunshots, after which the Honda traveled several more feet before crashing into another vehicle.
According to ABC News, citing city officials, Good was shot in the head and taken to a local hospital, where she was later pronounced deceased.
DHS Agents In Minneapolis
The incident happened just a month after President Donald Trump deployed Department of Homeland Security (DHS) agents to Minneapolis in response to reported issues linked to illegal immigration and massive amounts of fraud.
On December 29, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem posted on X that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement was “on the ground” in Minneapolis.

In a December 18 press conference, First Assistant U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson claimed that since 2018, fraud in Minnesota may even be as high as $18 billion.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz Responds
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz said Wednesday that the state’s National Guard was prepared to deploy if necessary following the fatal shooting.
Walz emphasized that the Guard would only act to support state needs and maintain order, noting, “We’ve never been at war with our federal government.”
He also noted that National Guard members were residents of the state of Minnesota.
“Minnesota will not allow our community to be used as a prop in a national political fight,” he said. “We will not take the bait.”
I’ve seen the video.
Don’t believe this propaganda machine.
The state will ensure there is a full, fair, and expeditious investigation to ensure accountability and justice. https://t.co/3faWW4bQvV
