Protests are planned Thursday around the Twin Cities in response to an ICE agent killing a woman in Minneapolis Wednesday.

People are marching Thursday morning to the Whipple Federal Building, which is being used as a base for immigration enforcement agents.

There will also be a gathering at noon at the site of the fatal shooting near the corner of 34th Street and Portland Avenue South. Minneapolis clergy and faith leaders plan to call for the immediate removal of ICE in Minnesota at that press conference.

Another gathering of local activists is planned Thursday afternoon at the Hennepin County Government Center. Speakers at that event plan to call for the arrest of the ICE agent who shot Renee Good, the release of all video and body-worn camera footage and accountability from federal authorities.

Thursday evening at 5:30 p.m. there is also a planned anti-ICE protest near Lake Street and Chicago Avenue.
