Minnesota sues Trump administration over ICE shootings that killed two citizens
Mar 25, 2026 · Minneapolis, MN, Venezuela
Minnesota officials sued the Trump administration's Departments of Homeland Security and Justice after ICE agents shot and killed U.S. citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti, and wounded Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis during an immigration enforcement operation in Minneapolis. The administration refused to cooperate with state-level investigations, declined to release the names of agents involved, and refused to share evidence despite formal requests. Charges against Sosa-Celis were dropped and a criminal investigation was opened into whether federal officials lied under oath. State prosecutors characterized the federal government's refusal to cooperate as unprecedented.
