The Minneapolis Shooting: The Facts

"The Minneapolis ICE shooting story has been evolving the way these stories always do – but not in the direction that the Left would prefer."

. . . "yet another example of the Left’s willingness to lubricate their programs with the blood of their opponents, of innocents, and of their own.

 also been active in documenting ICE operations in
the city.

ICE agent who shot Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis an Iraq War veteran, is believed to have worked as an ICE agent since at least 2013.   
. . . "ICE agents had conducted a traffic stop on Roberto Carlos Munoz, a serial illegal immigrant from Guatemala with a lengthy rap sheet, records show.
"Ross broke the back driver’s side window after Munoz refused to exit his vehicle when officers approached his car.    The suspect then sped away with Ross’ arm caught between the seat and the car frame — dragging him more than 100 yards, the Justice Department said at the time.He was hospitalized with “significant injuries to his arm and hand” requiring 33 stitches, but made a full recovery, according to the feds." . . .

. . . "The officer needed more than 30 stitches after the June incident in Bloomington, Minn. The suspect in that incident was convicted of assault several weeks ago.

"Vice-President JD Vance and U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem spoke about the officer at length during a news conference on Thursday, doubling down on their account that the agent was defending himself when he shot Good.

"Local and state officials have repeatedly rejected the Trump administration's version of events, saying video evidence directly contradicts the notion that Good deliberately "weaponized" her vehicle to drive at the officer.

“ '[T]hat very ICE officer nearly had his life ended, dragged by a car six months ago," Vance said at the White House on Thursday. "So you think maybe he’s a little bit sensitive about somebody ramming him with an automobile?' " . . . 

ICE Agent Jonathan Ross sustained serious injuries during a June 2025 arrest attempt, including multiple large cuts and abrasions, and was treated with a tourniquet before hospitalization.

. . . "Jonathan Ross, an ICE officer involved in recent high-profile incidents, was severely injured during an arrest in Bloomington, Minnesota, in June 2025. Court records and affidavits describe that Ross suffered multiple large cuts and abrasions on his knee, elbow, and face as a result of the incident.

The injury occurred when Ross was physically dragged approximately 50 yards by a fleeing suspect in a vehicle while his arm remained caught inside the car. This dangerous situation caused significant trauma, requiring immediate medical attention. An FBI agent applied a tourniquet to control bleeding at the scene before Ross was transported to a hospital for further care.
These injuries highlight the risks law enforcement officers face during high-risk arrests, especially when suspects resist and attempt to evade capture by force. Ross’s injuries were serious enough to require emergent treatment but no further details on long-term impact have been publicly disclosed.
Ross’s career includes extensive government and military service, emphasizing his experience prior to this incident. His injury during the 2025 arrest has been cited in news coverage related to his role in subsequent events in Minneapolis.
Overall, the injuries sustained were significant physical trauma due to being dragged by a vehicle and reinforced with visible large cuts and abrasions on critical areas of his body, managed emergency onsite with a tourniquet application. This information is drawn from official court documents and credible news reports.
