"MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - A Minnesota prosecutor on Friday called on the public to share with investigators any recordings and evidence connected to the fatal shooting of Renee Good as a new video emerged showing the final moments of her encounter with an immigration officer. The Minneapolis killing and a separate shooting in Portland, Oregon, a day later by the Border Patrol have set off protests in multiple cities and denunciations of immigration enforcement tactics by the U.S. government."
"Sirens blaring in the background, he approaches and circles Good's vehicle in the middle of the road while apparently filming on his cellphone. At the same time, Good's wife also was recording the encounter and can be seen walking around the vehicle and approaching the officer. A series of exchanges occurred:"
""That's fine, I'm not mad at you," Good says as the officer passes by her door. She has one hand on the steering wheel and the other outside the open driver side window. "U.S. citizen, former f-ing veteran," says her wife, standing outside the passenger side of the SUV holding up her phone. "You wanna come at us, you wanna come at us, I say go get yourself some lunch big boy.""
A 47-second cellphone video recorded from the perspective of ICE officer Jonathan Ross was published online and later reposted by the Department of Homeland Security, showing the final moments before Renee Good was shot. The footage shows sirens blaring as the officer approaches and circles Good's SUV while apparently filming. Good's wife was also recording and can be seen walking around the vehicle and speaking to officers. Prosecutors asked the public to share any recordings or evidence related to the fatal shooting. The Minneapolis killing and a separate Border Patrol shooting in Portland sparked protests and criticism of immigration enforcement tactics.
