In Minneapolis,
there's a deepening political divide after an ICE officer yesterday shot and killed a 37-year-old woman,
Renee Nicole Good.
The Trump administration says the agent fired in self-defense after Good tried to run over officers,
but state and city officials dispute that version of events.
Videos from the scene have raised questions about whether Good was trying to flee rather than harm someone.
Now, Minnesota officials say the FBI has shut them out of the investigation into the shooting.
Governor Tim Walls, a Democrat,
said an investigation that doesn't include state law enforcement can't be trusted.
