(NewsNation) — Tens of thousands of people protested in Minneapolis on Saturday, the latest demonstrations after the deadly shooting of Minnesota woman Renee Nicole Good.  

The city’s mayor and police chief say they are monitoring the demonstrations, calling on protesters to remain peaceful. 

Thousands of people marched through Minneapolis for days after the Immigration and Customs Enforcement-involved shooting, holding signs that said things like, “We will never forget what you did here” and “ICE out of Minnesota.”

“What we’re asking for is for this officer to be prosecuted, to be put on trial, and for the facts to show that we have a process, we have a judicial system that determines whether someone is guilty or not,” one protester, Khalid Omar, said. 

The Department of Homeland Security posted a picture on X of an airplane on a tarmac, appearing to be a deportation flight, writing, “Lawbreakers going wheels up in Minneapolis.” 

Sources have told NewsNation that 1,000 additional Border Patrol agents are expected to arrive in the state.
