New footage has emerged of the moments leading up to the ICE-involved shooting of Renee Nicole Good, who was shot and killed after accelerating towards a federal agent positioned in front of her vehicle.
The new footage, which was shared by Townhall columnist Dustin Grage, shows Good blocking immigration enforcement officers on a South Minneapolis street for several minutes. With her Honda Pilot positioned in the middle of the street, Good can be heard laying on her horn for a solid three minutes.
At one point, she even appeared to be dancing to her own car horn as she obstructed agents. Other agitators banged drums and blew whistles as part of an effort to alert nearby illegal aliens.
The vehicle was clearly positioned in a way that would prevent agents from moving around her.
Grage noted that this debunks several narratives advanced by left-wing lawmakers and media outlets. In one example, the Wisconsin Democratic Party claimed that Good was simply dropping her kids off at school when she was shot.
“After a mother was killed by ICE after dropping her children off at school, Tom Tiffany has nothing but a snarky comment for MN schoolchildren facing safety concerns and reeling from the violence in their community,” the party’s official X account posted in response to a Republican congressman who questioned school closures in Minneapolis.
🚨 BREAKING: Was just sent a video showing the moments before the shooting.
In it, you can clearly see Renee Good’s vehicle blocking ICE agents for over 3 minutes as she’s dancing to her own car horn.
Kinda ruins some narratives, doesn’t it? pic.twitter.com/aXtiTjAtF9

According to a report from the New York Post, Good and her wife had recently moved to Minneapolis from Kansas City and became involved with a local “ICE watch” group through their six-year-old son’s ultra-woke charter school.
“She was a warrior. She died doing what was right,” a mother named Leesa, whose child attends the same school, told The Post at a vigil near the site of the shooting on Wednesday night. “I know she was doing the right thing. I watched the video plenty of times but I also know in my heart the woman she was, she was doing everything right,” the woman added.
Good and her wife, Rebecca, were raising the child together in the activist-heavy neighborhood of South Minneapolis. The site where Good was ultimately shot is located about a mile from the site of George Floyd’s death in 2020.
The lesbian couple’s son attended Southside Family Charter School, a K-5 academy opened in 1972 which has been “unabashedly dedicated to social justice education,” since its founding, according to co-founder Susie Oppenheim. Through her involvement in the school community, Good became affiliated with “ICE watch,” a coalition of activists dedicated to disrupting federal immigration operations in the Twin Cities area.
Similar “ICE Watch” groups have cropped up around the country since President Donald Trump returned to the White House last January. Such groups frequently track agents through social media and attempt to disrupt operations by blowing whistles to alert potential targets and boxing in agents with their own vehicles.
“[Renee Good] was trained against these ICE agents — what to do, what not to do, it’s a very thorough training,” Leesa told the New York Post. “To listen to commands, to know your rights, to whistle when you see an ICE agent,” she added.
The Minneapolis group started out as a loose collection of activists, but had recently merged with more established far-left organizations like Twin Cities Ungovernables, according to the report. In a recent Instagram post, the ICE Watch group encouraged agitators to bring items that would help them barricade the streets around where the shooting took place.
They were even encouraged to bring items that could easily burn, including dried up Christmas trees.
Activities from such groups have led to a 3,200 percent rise in attacks on federal agents since last year, according to DHS agents shared with The Post. In terms of vehicular attacks in particular, the department logged 28 incidents in 2025, up from just two in the prior year.
