Two people shot by federal border control agents in Portland just days after mother killed by ICE in Minneapolis

The shooting took place at a medical facility in Portland, Oregon, on Thursday afternoon during a “vehicle stop” by border control officers.

A man and a woman were injured in the incident, officials confirmed.

In a post on X, the Department of Homeland Security said the man tried to “weaponise” his vehicle, forcing an officer to open fire.

There is no evidence for this claim.

Portland Police Chief Bob Day said: "We understand the heightened emotion and tension many are feeling in the wake of the shooting in Minneapolis, but I am asking the community to remain calm as we work to learn more."

The shooting comes just days after Renee Nicole Good, 37, was killed at the wheel of her SUV by an ICE agent in Minneapolis.

The mother, whom Vice President JD Vance has branded a “left-wing domestic terrorist” was seemingly attempting to drive away from the ICE agent when he opened fire, killing her.

On Thursday, protesters clashed with federal law enforcement at the sight of the shooting - with at least three people taken into custody at the demonstration.

The demo was said to be "non-violent" according to organisers, with locals in the region blowing whistles to alert those around when ICE officials were approaching.

On both evenings since the shooting, hundreds of people came out for a vigil to mourn her and urge the public to resist immigration enforcement.

Some then chanted as they marched through the city, but there was no violence.

"I would love for ICE to leave our city and for more community members to come to see it happens," said Sander Kolodziej, a painter who came to the vigil to support the community.

Authorities in Minneapolis canceled school classes across the city on Thursday amid safety concerns and rising political tension.

Tim Walz, Minnesota’s Democratic governor, urged protesters to remain calm, writing on X: "My public safety team is working to gather information on an ICE related shooting this morning.

"We will share information as we learn more. In the meantime, I ask folks to remain calm."

In a fiery news conference from the White House, the Vice-President insisted the 37-year-old's death was a "tragedy of her own making," branding her a "victim of left-wing ideology".

Footage of the mother's killing in a residential area of the city emerged online and appears to show Ms Good turning the wheels of her vehicle away from ICE agents in an apparent attempt to drive away.

He said the ICE officer who killed Good "discharged his weapon in self-defence" and that "other angles of the video show the woman *clearly* hit the officer with her car while accelerating".

In an earlier post, the Vice-President wrote: "Do you think this officer was wrong in defending his life against a deranged leftist who tried to run him over?"

The Trump administration has doubled down on seemingly unfounded claims Ms Good was part of some wider network of left-wing agitators, dismissing murder claims and insisting the shooting was an act of "self-defence" by agents.

Vance added he was "certain" that Renee Good "violated the law" and the officer involved had "every reason to think that he was under very serious threat of injury".

Multiple witnesses and video footage contradict the White House's version of events.

Speaking from the White House, Vance asserted that the ICE agent involved has "absolute immunity" to do his job, which is a "federal issue".

Vance added that any prosecution brought against the officer by local officials would be "unprecedented".
