Minneapolis ICE shooting updates: Over 3,000 arrested in Minnesota, DHS says
Thousands have been arrested since Operation Metro Surge began in December.
Tensions continued over the weekend in Minneapolis, as protesters clashed in the streets with law enforcement, following the second shooting there in about a week involving a federal officer.
The Department of Homeland Security said that on Wednesday, a federal law enforcement officer shot a person, who they say had fled a traffic stop and then, along with two other people, began attacking the officer.
That incident followed the fatal shooting of Renee Good, a 37-year-old mother, on Jan. 7. DHS officials said Good was allegedly attempting to run over law enforcement officers when an ICE officer fatally shot her -- a claim that local officials have disputed.

Minnesota judge declines to issue TRO against ICE, seeks more evidence
Minnesota, along with the cities of St. Paul and Minneapolis, held a Zoom hearing on Wednesday to discuss the lawsuit against the federal government in an effort to stop the surge of ICE agents coming into the state.
During the hearing, Judge Catherine Menendez declined to issue a temporary restraining order against ICE operations in Minnesota and is seeking further evidence before issuing a ruling.
The plaintiffs requested a temporary restraining order from the judge, arguing that the ICE raids and surge are violating the rights of citizens. They argued that a temporary restraining order would allow attorneys enough time to prepare arguments.
Federal lawyers argued that since the state had not proven anything, there was no need for an order to temporarily halt the raid.
The federal government has until Jan. 19 to respond, and the state of Minnesota has until Jan. 22.

Trump comments on Renee Good's father
Following the death of Renee Good, President Donald Trump was asked in an interview with CBS News on Tuesday what he has to say to her father, who the reporter said is a supporter of the president.
"Well, I want to say to the father that I love all of our people. They can be on the other side. As you say, he might be on my side," Trump said.
"I think it's great," Trump said when the reporter claimed Good's father "is on your side." "And I would bet you that she, under normal circumstances, was a very solid, wonderful person, but her actions were pretty tough," Trump said.

Minneapolis state lawmakers criticize termination of TPS for Somalis
The Minneapolis delegation of the Minnesota House of Representatives released a statement Tuesday decrying the Trump administration's announcement that it would end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Somalis in March.
The delegation called the move "a significant departure from decades of bipartisan humanitarian policy."
"TPS exists because conditions in designated countries meet clear statutory standards related to conflict and instability. Ending these protections does not change the realities on the ground abroad, but it does create fear, disrupt families, and destabilize communities here at home," they said.
“As the Minneapolis Delegation, we stand with Somali Minnesotans and with all communities impacted by the termination of TPS. We oppose immigration policies that separate families, undermine community stability, and erode public trust," they added.
