On a frigid winter morning on Jan. 7 in Minneapolis,\u00a0Renee Nicole Good, 37, a mother of three, had finished one of the quiet rituals of daily life. After dropping off her 6-year-old son at school, Good and her committed partner Becca, 40, were driving a maroon Honda Pilot when Becca suggested they take a detour, as federal ICE agents had flooded the city and protesters were already gathering.<\/p>\n
Good agreed to go, a decision that would keep her from ever making it home. Within minutes, at 9:37 a.m., she was fatally shot three times behind the wheel by\u00a0Jonathan Ross, who joined ICE in 2015 and was serving in 2025 as a firearms instructor and a member of the F.B.I.\u2019s Joint Terrorism Task Force.<\/p>\n
\u201cI heard three pops of the gun,\u201d said witness Lynette Reini-Grandell. \u201cThe people around me started screaming \u2026 \u2018You killed her!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
The first 911 call came in at 9:39 a.m., setting off a cascade of panic, confusion and violence that would unfold across the neighborhood on Portland Avenue. One caller told dispatchers he had just watched an ICE agent shoot a woman at close range as she sat in her car, according to an incident report released by Minnesota police officials.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s f\u2014in\u2019 dead,\u201d caller Matt said. \u201cThey f\u2014in\u2019 shot her. There were about 15 ICE agents and the woman was shot \u201c\u2019cause she wouldn\u2019t open her car door,\u201d according to the report. Multiple voices could be heard yelling and screaming in the background of the first call.<\/p>\n
Within a minute, another call came in. This caller said they, too, had seen ICE shoot someone inside a vehicle \u2014 and then watched the car crash. \u201cSo, I don\u2019t think they\u2019re okay,\u201d the caller said of the driver. \u201cUh, I\u2019m sorry, I had to walk away because I have young kids, and ICE is everywhere over there.\u201d<\/p>\n
Almost immediately after that, another 911 caller reported seeing \u201cblood all over the driver and then the partner who was trying to provide assistance.\u201d That caller added that the agent who shot the woman was still on the scene, wearing an ICE tactical vest.<\/p>\n
By then, tensions had escalated at the scene. As SWAT team members approached and began yelling at bystanders to get back, the reality of what had happened cut through the noise. Becca began screaming, \u201cMy wife!\u201d according to a neighbor, who asked to remain anonymous.<\/p>\n Becca, who previously referred to Good as her wife, was holding her, sobbing, covered in her blood, according to witnesses. Photos of Good\u2019s SUV at the scene showed a blood-soaked airbag and stuffed animals in the glove compartment \u2014 ordinary remnants of a life interrupted.<\/p>\n \u201cI saw the hole in the windshield. It looked chest level,\u201d James, a neighbor, former firefighter and first responder\u00a0told PEOPLE. Inside the car, the damage was unmistakable.<\/p>\n \u201cThere was so much blood around the airbag. The white airbag was red. There was so much blood,\u201d he continued, shaking his head. \u201cRenee\u2019s body and her front seat were covered in blood. I could see the bullet hole through her left side. It was very, very gruesome.\u201d<\/p>\n At 9:42 a.m., less than five minutes after the first 911 call, a fire vehicle arrived. Responders found Good unresponsive in her car; she had been shot several times. She had two apparent gunshot wounds on the right side of her chest, another on her left forearm and a fourth on the left side of her head, according to the records. Blood was flowing from her left ear and her pupils were dilated.<\/p>\n After moving her and continuing to assess her condition, responders found she still wasn\u2019t breathing and had no pulse, according to the records. Chest compressions and other lifesaving measures followed in an attempt to resuscitate her. She wasn\u2019t breathing and had \u201cinconsistent, irregular, thready pulse activity.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThey were trying to revive her \u2026 but Renee was stuck in the car. I was out here when they pulled her out of the car but they were struggling for a long time,\u201d\u00a0said James. \u201cNot very nicely they pulled her out and then they ended up just carrying her out of here. They didn\u2019t have a stretcher at first. Three people carried her. They walked her down holding her to the ambulance at the end of the block.\u201d<\/p>\n The incident report \u2014 portions of which were redacted \u2014 leaves unclear exactly when EMS arrived. What is clear is that it took roughly fifteen minutes after the first 911 call for Good to be transported to the hospital. Resuscitation efforts continued on scene and en route. They were finally stopped at around 10:30 a.m., roughly an hour after she was shot.<\/p>\n Becca walked to the closest neighbor\u2019s yard and sat on the steps before Good was removed from the SUV. \u201cHey, can we get her a towel to clean her face off?\u201d a roommate asked James, as Becca stood in the front yard of their sober home, drenched and stunned. As she began to stand and cry, she said, \u201cThere\u2019s a dog in the back. Can someone get it for me, please?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThey couldn\u2019t get [Renee] out of the car, she was stuck in there for about 20 minutes or so,\u201d James said. \u201cBecca left to go to the hospital before they even got her partner out of the car. She was traumatized. Crying, completely in shock. She was just stunned. I mean, she was holding her dead loved one in her arms.\u201d<\/p>\n Even as emergency crews worked to save Good\u2019s life, federal agent Ross who shot her was already gone. By 10:03 a.m., the agent was listed as \u201cno longer on scene\u201d and had been transported to the federal building, according to the incident report. As reports poured in from the street, one 911 call came from someone claiming they were calling on behalf of DHS, offering a very different version of events. \u201cWe had officers stuck in a vehicle and we had agitators on scene,\u201d the caller said. \u201cAnd we have shots fired by our locals.\u201d<\/p>\n A spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security\u00a0said on Jan. 14 that Ross suffered internal bleeding in his torso after being taken to the hospital, but declined to answer further questions. An FBI representative said, \u201cNo further information is available for release at this time in accordance with DOJ policy.\u201d<\/p>\n The report itself reflects a scene still unraveling long after the gunfire stopped. \u201cStill [attempting] to figure out who\u2019s in change,\u201d one entry reads. Ross hasn\u2019t been accused of a crime. But use-of-force experts have openly questioned his actions. \u201cIn order to use deadly force, your life or someone else\u2019s life must be in immediate danger,\u201d\u00a0said Chris Burbank, a former Salt Lake City police chief who doesn\u2019t believe Good posed any such risk.<\/p>\n The investigation has been contentious from the start. Federal officials said the FBI would handle the inquiry, arguing Minnesota authorities lacked jurisdiction.\u00a0State Attorney General Keith Ellison\u00a0pushed back, calling for \u201ca fair, transparent investigation of all of the facts.\u201d<\/p>\n As the investigation unfolded, the neighborhood remained on edge. In the hours after Good was killed, protesters gathered near the scene. The incident report describes \u201cagitators,\u201d repeated calls for backup and attempts to block an ICE convoy. Around 11 a.m., Border Patrol agents deployed pepper spray.<\/p>\n Roughly two hours after Good was fatally shot, DHS released a statement accusing her of committing an \u201cact of domestic terrorism.\u201d The agency claimed the ICE officer relied on his training and \u201cfired defensive shots\u201d at a vehicle they said was trying to \u201crun over\u201d agents.<\/p>\n Good\u2019s family rejected that characterization outright. Despite the administration\u2019s claims, her mother Donna and father Tim Ganger, along with her four siblings,\u00a0told PEOPLE\u00a0that Good \u201cwas a beautiful light of our family and brought joy to anyone she met. She was relentlessly hopeful and optimistic which was contagious. We all already miss her more than words could ever express.\u201d<\/p>\n Back at the scene, the physical evidence of what happened remained embedded in the block.<\/p>\n \u201cAll of the rest of the blood is underneath the vigil,\u201d said James. \u201cThe blood that I know that they did clean up was the blood that came from Becca that was over here in my yard. I have met Renee a few times. I tell people, she\u2019s been in the neighborhood.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve seen her vehicle all the time. She\u2019s helped other neighbors out,\u201d he continued. \u201cShe was a kind, sweet lady. She helped everybody. If you needed help, she was there and could help, she\u2019d help. And that\u2019s the sweetest thing ever. I think the first time I met her, her vehicle was actually stuck in the snow and I helped her get it out.\u201d<\/p>\n Witnesses said Becca collapsed into grief on the steps of a neighbor\u2019s house. She was later reunited with her dog, stroking him in stunned silence before being taken to the hospital. \u201cWe stopped to support our neighbors,\u201d Becca said in a statement on Jan. 9. \u201cWe had whistles. They had guns.\u201d<\/p>\n Even as protests, vigils and political fallout continue, the aftermath is most sharply felt just around the corner from where Good was killed and about a mile from the site of George Floyd\u2019s murder in May 2020, a grim echo of the city\u2019s long history of public grief and dissent. And just three days after Good\u2019s killing,\u00a0on Saturday, Jan. 10, the vigil at the site of her death\u00a0was dense with thousands of flowers, signs and paintings while some knelt in prayer, crying softly, absorbing that quiet agony in their own way.<\/p>\n As night fell and the cold deepened, the tone shifted from solemn remembrance to simmering outrage. Those closest to the heart of the vigil waved signs reading \u201cREMEMBER\u201d \u201cRENEE GOOD. ICE BAD\u201d and \u201cF\u2014 ICE\u201d and chanted against the agency and the Trump administration, led by a protester shouting through a megaphone.<\/p>\n In a final statement, Becca spoke not only of grief, but of the future she now faces alone: \u201cI am now left to raise our son and to continue teaching him, as Renee believed, that there are people building a better world for him.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Inside Renee Good\u2019s Final Moments: Trapped in Her SUV…See more Inside Renee Good\u2019s Final Moments \u2014 Trapped in Her SUV as Responders Tried to Save Her and Her Partner … <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":386,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-385","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"\n![\"Renee](\"https:\/\/www.bollywoodshaadis.com\/img\/article-l-20261714371052630000-xl.webp\")
