A woman was yanked out of her car by federal agents for allegedly impeding an immigration enforcement operation in Minnesota on Tuesday — less than a week after a mother of three was fatally shot.
Footage captured the chaotic scene that broke out when the unidentified driver positioned her car across lanes of traffic, seemingly blocking ICE vehicles from driving through during an anti-ICE protest in Minneapolis.
Agents attempted to clear the streets of the screaming protesters when they walked up to the female driver, who appeared to be wedging agents between her vehicle and another car blocking the road.
The agents then smashed through the car’s passenger window.
“Go, go, go, go,” people yelled at the driver.

One Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) agent leaned into the black sedan and appeared to unlock the driver’s door before opening it, allowing another agent to grab the woman.
Protesters on the street blew their whistles in an attempt to stop the agents, yelling “Stop,” “That’s so f—ked up” and “All you do is hurt.”
Minutes later, the protesters, wearing black hoodies and gas masks, were seen banging against the federal agents’ cars, as tear gas, pepper balls and pepper spray were deployed in an attempt to get control of the unruly crowd.
“Nazis,” another agitator yelled. “You will pay for your crimes.”
Multiple people were taken to the ground by agents and detained in the snow.
ICE ERO Acting Executive Associate Director Marcos Charles told Fox News that officials had arrested at least 60 protesters who had “impeded us or assaulted an officer.”
President Trump warned Minnesotans a “day of reckoning was coming” after his administration was sued for its continuing ICE operations in the state.
“Every place we go, crime comes down. In Chicago, despite a weak and incompetent Governor and Mayor fighting us all the way, a big improvement was made. Thousands of Criminals were removed!” Trump posted on Truth Social.
“Minnesota Democrats love the unrest that anarchists and professional agitators are causing,” the president said.
“FEAR NOT, GREAT PEOPLE OF MINNESOTA, THE DAY OF RECKONING & RETRIBUTION IS COMING!”
Chaotic protests have swept across the North Star State following the death of anti-ICE agitator Renee Nicole Good on Jan. 7. Police estimate “tens of thousands” of demonstrators have been attending rallies and street marches against ICE’s continued presence in the Twin Cities.
Good, 37, was in her car, allegedly blocking traffic on a Minneapolis residential street and waiting for ICE agents to drive through.
Video of the shooting captured Good, inside her plum-colored Honda, turning the car to face an ICE agent, before driving forward and clipping the armed officer.
He fired, fatally striking the mother of three.
The White House has stood by the agent, claiming he was acting in self-defense against an act of domestic terrorism.
