Washington [US], January 11: A new video has emerged showing the final moments of a Minnesota woman's encounter with an immigration officer before she was killed, as public uproar grows in the United States over the shooting and exclusion of local agencies from the investigation.
A Minnesota prosecutor on Friday called on the public to share with investigators any recordings and evidence connected to the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good, 37, who was fatally shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent.
With sirens blaring in the background, Ross, 43, approaches and circles Good's vehicle in the middle of the road while apparently filming on his cellphone. A series of exchanges occurred.
"That's fine, I'm not mad at you," Good says as the officer passes by her door. She has one hand on the steering wheel and the other outside the open driver's side window.
Other officers approach the driver's side of the car at about the same time, and one says, "Get out of the car."
Ross is now at the front driver's side of the vehicle. Good reverses briefly, then turns the steering wheel towards the passenger side as she drives ahead, and Ross opens fire. The camera becomes unsteady and points towards the sky, then returns to the street view showing Good's SUV careening away.
A crashing sound is heard as Good's vehicle smashes into others parked on the street.
The Minneapolis killing and a separate shooting in Portland, Oregon, on Thursday by the Border Patrol have set off protests in multiple US cities and denunciations of immigration enforcement tactics by the US government.
