Minneapolis Public Schools has canceled classes and activities following the fatal shooting of a woman by an immigration officer and ensuing protests.

The school district, which has an enrolment of about 29,000 students, said in a statement on Wednesday that there will be no school, sports and activities on Thursday and Friday “due to safety concerns related to today’s incidents around the city.”

The 37-year-old woman, identified as Renee Nicole Good, was fatally shot in a residential neighbourhood south of downtown Minneapolis during the Trump administration’s latest immigration crackdown in a major city.

Her killing after 9:30 a.m. was recorded on video by witnesses.

    I think Minneapolis police should indeed be ordered to do this.

    but it’s extremely unlikely that they would. ACAB.

      There was a Minnesota Fraternal Order of Police statement of support for the ICE murderer. Pigs protect pigs.

      Also this is the same police force that murdered George Floyd. And fuck all has been done about them since, Frey talks big but can’t or won’t accomplish anything.
