In Minneapolis, USA, violent protests erupted after a 37-year-old woman was shot dead by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent. Hundreds of locals gathered to protest, chanting against the agents and demanding that they leave the city. Tensions escalated quickly, and law enforcement used pepper spray and tear gas to disperse the crowd. The incident was justified by President Donald Trump, who claimed that the woman had acted aggressively, trying to hit the agents with her car. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz criticized the president's rhetoric and called for an investigation. Local authorities dispute the official version, and Mayor Jacob Frey has called for ICE agents to leave the city. Following the violence, local educational units in the area were closed for safety reasons.
