Newly surfaced video circulating on X appears to show the moments leading up to the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good during a Minneapolis immigration enforcement operation, offering additional visual context to an encounter that remains under federal investigation.
The approximately 3½-minute video clip was posted on X on Saturday and was filmed from an elevated vantage point across the street.
The footage shows Good’s SUV stopped diagonally in the roadway, blocking at least one lane of traffic and preventing Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents from moving freely through the area. Her vehicle remains in that position for more than three minutes.

In the video, Good’s horn can be heard blaring continuously while she rocks side to side in the driver’s seat.
One X user described her movements as “dancing.”
The clip captures bystanders nearby yelling and whistling as federal agents slowly approach the SUV.
Throughout most of the video, no agents are seen attempting to break into the vehicle.

The footage ends abruptly just as the shooting appears to occur, cutting off before viewers can see the final seconds that immediately preceded the gunfire.
As a result, the video provides only a partial view of the encounter and does not show the precise moment when shots were fired.

Following the clip’s release, reactions on X were mixed.
Some users criticized Good’s actions, arguing that using her vehicle to obstruct federal agents contributed to the deadly outcome.
Others said the incident left “no winners,” reflecting broader public debate over the circumstances surrounding the shooting.

Federal officials have previously stated that Good used her vehicle as a weapon during the encounter and that her actions endangered an ICE agent.
According to those officials, that perceived threat led to the use of deadly force. Authorities have maintained that the shooting occurred in response to an immediate risk to agent safety.
The release of the video came as Vice President J.D. Vance publicly addressed the incident and defended Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent accused of killing Good.
Vance said Good “violated the law” and argued that the agent had every reason to fear for his life during the encounter.
He also dismissed criticism from Democratic officials who labeled the shooting a murder, pushing back against claims that the use of force was unjustified.
The video has added to scrutiny of the moments leading up to the shooting, particularly as additional recordings continue to circulate online.
While the newly surfaced footage does not show the shooting itself, it has intensified public focus on Good’s actions prior to the fatal encounter and on how federal agents responded.
Officials have not announced any conclusions from the investigation, and no final determinations have been made regarding the actions of the ICE agent involved.
Authorities have indicated that the case remains under review as investigators examine available video evidence and witness accounts.
As the investigation continues, the Minneapolis shooting has drawn national attention, fueled in part by the release of video clips and commentary from public officials.
Federal authorities have emphasized that all available evidence will be evaluated before any decisions are reached, while critics and supporters alike continue to debate what the footage shows and how it should be interpreted.
