   Federal agents shoot, kill another U.S. citizen in Minnesota   
      
   Jan. 24 (UPI) -- Minnesota officials confirmed on Saturday that another   
   Immigration and Customs Enforcement-involved shooting death happened in   
   Minneapolis.   
      
   Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara said during a news conference that   
   local officials have identified the man who agents wrestled to the ground   
   as he allegedly resisted arrest before the shooting as a U.S. citizen.   
      
   The Department of Homeland Security said in a statement that an alleged   
   illegal alien wanted for deadly assault approached Border Patrol officers   
   with a handgun. When officers tried to disarm him, he resisted and an agent   
   fired "defensive shots."   
      
   Medics on the scene delivered medical aid but he was pronounced dead at the   
   scene, department officials said.   
      
   According to O'Hara, the man also is believed to have had a permit to   
   legally carry a gun in Minnesota, where state law allows people to openly   
   carry or conceal a weapon as long as they have a permit, according to the   
   Times.

   The shooting happened on the city's south side, where federal agents have   
   engaged with people protesting the ongoing immigration actions in the city   
   -- including with tear gas and other chemicals -- CBS News and The New York   
   Times reported.   
      
   Gov. Tim Walz, as well as U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, said they had already   
   spoken with the White House after reports of the shooting surfaced, which   
   would be the third in Minneapolis since ICE's ongoing "Operation Metro   
   Surge" started in December.   
      
   In a post on X, Walz said "Minnesota has had it. This is sickening."   
      
   "The President must end this operation," Walz posted. "Pull the thousands   
   of violent, untrained officers out of Minnessota. Now."   
      
   Klobuchar, in a post on X, called on Republicans in Congress to "stop your   
   silence and stop being complicit" and urged President Donald Trump "and all   
   your lieutenants who ordered this ICE surge: watch the horrific video of   
   the killing today."   
      
   "The world is watching," she said. "Thousands of citizens stopped and   
   harassed. Local police no longer able to do their work. Kids hiding.   
   Schools closed. Get ICE out of Minnesota NOW."   
      
   On Friday, thousands of protesters in Minneapolis participated in "ICE   
   Out" day, which included large marches and gatherings, including a group of   
   clergy that was arrested at Minneapolis-St. Paul airport and businesses   
   throughout the city shutting down as people avoided spending money.

   Saturday's shooting would be the third time an ICE official has shot in the   
   city someone since Jan. 7, when officer Jonathan Ross shot and killed   
   Minneapolis resident Renee Nicole Good after she allegedly tried to run him   
   over.   
      
   A week later, on Jan. 15, a Venezuelan immigrant allegedly in the country   
   illegally fled arrest, crashing his vehicle into a parked car and taking   
   off on foot.   
      
   According to the Department of Homeland Security, the immigrant violently   
   resisted arrest and, after two other people attacked the ICE agent with a   
   shovel and a broom handle, was shot in the leg.   
      
   Protests, as well as the number of constitutional watchers who blow   
   whistles and yell to alert neighborhoods that ICE is conducting raids   
   nearby, have ratcheted up significantly since both shootings. Good's death   
   has also sparked protests nationwide.   
      
   Additionally, local police have reported they have received "endless   
   complaints" from U.S. citizens, city officials and off-duty officers who   
   have been stopped "with no cause" and asked to prove their citizenship.   
      
   The stops have been blamed on skin color or accent, with one encounter with   
   an off-duty officer who reportedly had guns pulled on her, police said.
