T-wolves hold a pregame moment of silence for Renee Good, the woman fatally
shot by an ICE officer
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) --- The Minnesota Timberwolves held a moment of silence before
their game on Thursday night for Renee Good, the 37-year-old woman fatally shot
in her car by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer.
Good was killed following a brief confrontation with ICE officers Wednesday
morning on a Minneapolis street about 3 miles from Target Center. The shooting
fueled further protests around the Twin Cities in light of a recent surge of
ICE activity in the area as part of the Trump administration's illegal
immigration crackdown.
"As we all know, our community has suffered yet another unspeakable tragedy,"
Timberwolves coach Chris Finch said before his team faced the Cleveland
Cavaliers. "We want to just convey our condolences and heartfelt wishes and
prayers and thoughts to the families and loved ones and all of those that are
greatly affected by what happened."
