Videos show demonstrators banging drums, trash cans and horns, damaging property and chanting as they moved between the Canopy Hotel and the Depot Renaissance; officers cited and released those detained and later declared an unlawful assembly after protesters forced entry at the Canopy. The presentation followed the shooting of Renee Good by an ICE officer earlier in the week; viral footage and witness video show Good&#8217;s vehicle moving toward the officer before shots were fired. The FBI has taken over the examination from the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension.
