(Photo by Stephen Maturen\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Neighbors described Good and her family as kind and close-knit. Mary Radford, 27, who lived next door, said, \u201cIt\u2019s a beautiful family. They have a son. He\u2019s very sweet. They\u2019re always outside playing. We\u2019re gonna miss seeing them \u2014 forever. It is so painful to think about how he\u2019s gonna fare in his life. And I just can\u2019t even imagine what that family is going through.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Friends and neighbors remembered Good as a kind and giving person. Megan Kocher, who visited her home just weeks earlier, said, \u201cShe fed me tea and cookies at her house while we talked about school stuff. She was such a warm and loving mother. This is tragic beyond words.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-details-of-the-incident\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Details of the incident<\/h2>\n<p>Good\u2019s SUV, registered in Missouri to Renee N.

Minneapolis City Council members released a statement saying, \u201cThis morning an ICE agent shot and killed Renee Nicole Good, a member of our community. Anyone who kills someone in our city deserves to be arrested, investigated, and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-1\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?creatorScreenName=newsner&amp;dnt=true&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-1&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=2009033359943418360&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fen.newsner.com%2Fnews%2Fbone-chilling-words-of-wife-of-woman-killed-by-ice-as-she-sobbed-near-her-wrecked-car%2F&amp;sessionId=44421134759acd08ff6f62ab64e8e9e02d04c3b3&amp;siteScreenName=newsner&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"2009033359943418360\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>State Senator Omar Fateh shared on X that he had received reports of federal agents blocking a doctor from administering potentially life-saving CPR.
