Witness reveals disturbing new details about ICE shooting: 'They seemed like children'

A witness who saw an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent shoot a woman dead in South Minneapolis, Minnesota, on Wednesday morning revealed disturbing new details about the event in an interview with CNN.

Renee Nicole Good, 37, was shot and killed by an ICE agent during an immigration raid in Minneapolis. The shooting happened at a time when the Trump administration surged more than 2,000 federal immigration officers into the city following reports of welfare fraud committed by the local Somali community.

Following the shooting, President Donald Trump claimed the shooting was in self-defense, and said the officer who shot Good was "lucky to be alive." DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said the officer was treated at a hospital and released the same day. She also said Good had "weaponized" her car against the officer.

Emily Heller, a Minneapolis resident who witnessed the shooting, threw cold water on all of these claims during an interview on CNN's "Erin Burnett OutFront."

Heller pushed back on claims that Good had weaponized her car and that an officer was injured at the scene. Videos taken during the incident show Good's car bumping into the officer, but the officer kept his footing and chased the car after firing the shots.

"They seemed like children," Heller said. "They seem like untrained people. And so that agent was obviously spooked because he had just killed someone, and it was very obvious to everyone who had witnessed it all that she would not make it."

Heller added that agents "gathered around" the officer who shot Good, got him into an SUV, and fled the scene.

She also said that agents did not quickly administer medical aid to Good. Instead, they prevented a doctor who was on-scene from providing care and waited about 15 minutes for an ambulance to arrive.

When the ambulance arrived, the flurry of abandoned ICE vehicles prevented it from getting close to the scene. That forced paramedics to carry Good's "limp body away by her limbs" until they could get to a stretcher.

"My life is forever changed from having witnessed this, and I just can't let this narrative that it was self-defense go any further because it's absolutely not what it was," Heller said.
