US federal officers shot another person in Minneapolis, governor says

US federal officers have shot another person in Minneapolis amid the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown, says Governor Tim Walz.

Walz, a Democrat, says in a social media post that he had been in contact with the White House after the shooting, and calls on US President Donald Trump to end the crackdown in his state. The details surrounding the shooting are not immediately clear.

Yesterday, thousands of demonstrators protesting the crackdown on immigrants crowded the city’s streets in frigid weather, calling for federal law enforcement to leave.

Protesters have gathered daily in the Twin Cities since January 7, when 37-year-old mother of three Renee Good was fatally shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer. Federal law enforcement officers have repeatedly squared off with community members and activists who track their movements.
