MINNEAPOLIS — As Minnesotans piece together how the deadly ICE agent shooting of a woman Wednesday in Minneapolis played out, two bystander videos have become key to those seeking to understand ― and interpret ― what happened.

Renee Nicole Good, 37, was fatally shot by an ICE agent on Portland Avenue near E. 34th Street in the Central neighborhood Wednesday morning.

The incident is under investigation by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension and the FBI, but politicians and pundits have turned to the videos to argue the shooting was, by turns, justified or unjustified.

The videos do not appear to support the claim made by President Donald Trump, that Good “viciously ran over the ICE Officer."

This video, which includes explicit language, shows an ICE agent walking toward the SUV and ordering the woman inside to get out while attempting to open the door. As the driver tries to pull away, another officer shoots her through the windshield.

One video, taken at close range by Caitlin Callenson, shows the Honda Pilot that Good was driving nearly perpendicular to the street, blocking part of a lane. With the driver’s window down, Good waves one vehicle by and appears to continue waving at a truck.

The truck’s lights are flashing and an ICE agent exits the passenger side. That agent and another agent approach Good’s vehicle. They order her to get out of the vehicle, at one point using an expletive.

One agent attempts to open the driver’s side door, unsuccessfully, as Good reverses her SUV.

As she reverses and turns, a third officer comes into view standing near the front driver’s side of the car. He draws his gun as Good drives forward. Three shots ring out.

Good’s car drives away from the bystander’s camera, coming to a rest after hitting a parked car.

A second video, taken by an unidentified bystander down the street and posted by KSTP, shows the shooting from a different angle. It begins moments before the ICE agent fired, with the Honda Pilot obscured behind another vehicle.

The video shows the Pilot emerge from behind that vehicle and appears to show the SUV strike the agent who was standing near the front of it. The SUV appears to push him backwards as he shoots, but he does not fall over.

At a news conference late Wednesday, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said the officer had been treated and released at a hospital.
