ICE agents ram Latino U.S. citizen's car in Minneapolis
Jan 12, 2026·Location: Minneapolis, MN

ICE agents rammed the car of Christian Molina, 40, as he drove to meet his wife at a mechanic's shop in south Minneapolis on Jan. 12. Agents questioned his immigration status and asked for ID, but released him after he said he was a U.S. citizen. The incident occurred two blocks from where an ICE agent fatally shot Renee Good on Jan. 7, and a crowd that gathered at the scene was met with chemical irritants deployed by agents. Molina and his wife live in Coon Rapids but had lived in south Minneapolis for years.
