Minnesota officials are protesting the FBI's decision to block their access to the investigation of the fatal shooting of Renee Good, 37, by an ICE agent in Minneapolis on Wednesday. The FBI initially agreed to a joint investigation with the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA), but then reversed course, denying the state access to evidence. The BCA has since withdrawn from the investigation. Governor Tim Walz expressed concern about the fairness of a solely federal investigation. Differing accounts exist, with the Trump administration claiming self-defense and local officials stating Good posed no threat. The FBI is currently leading the investigation into the incident.
