Alpha News on Jan. 9 published what appeared to be video recorded by ICE agent Jonathan Ross during the deadly shooting of Renee Good on Jan. 7 in Minneapolis.
Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin wrote on X that “this latest footage corroborates what DHS has stated all along. This individual was impeding law enforcement and weaponized her vehicle against @ICEgov. The officer dutifully acted in self-defense. The American people can watch this video with their own eyes and judge for themselves."
The 48-second video, posted by the Minnesota-based conservative outlet, begins with Ross exiting his vehicle and approaching Good as she sits behind the wheel of her Honda Pilot as it’s parked perpendicular on Portland Avenue. The scene is loud, with sirens and vehicle horns blaring.
With her window down and a dog in the back seat, Good says, “That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.”
Ross, who can be seen in the reflection of the vehicle, then continues around the back of Good’s SUV. He records the license plate as a woman yells, “Show your face!”
The footage then shows the woman holding up her own cellphone and telling Ross: “We don’t change our plates every morning, just so you know. It will be the same plate when you come talk to us later.
“That’s fine; U.S. citizen. … You wanna come at us? You wanna come at us? I say go get yourself some lunch, big boy.”
A source close to the investigation confirmed that the woman in the video is Becca Good, who said in a statement to MPR News that she was also at the scene that day.
