CHASKA, Minn., Jan 11 — Before Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer Jonathan Ross fatally shot Renee Nicole Good on a Minneapolis street on Wednesday, he spent years serving in the US military and working for federal law enforcement.<\/p>\n

Ross, who confronted Good as she tried to drive away during a confrontation, has become the centre of a national debate over whether his actions were justified.<\/p>\n

Trump administration figures, including former President Donald Trump, have defended Ross and claimed Good attempted to run him over with her SUV.<\/p>\n

NBC News reported, however, that witnesses said Ross was not in the direct path of Good’s vehicle when he fired.<\/p>\n

Video footage contradicts claims that Good “viciously ran over” Ross, showing her legs were clear of the SUV as he fired.<\/p>\n

NBC News reported that Ross served in the Indiana National Guard and was deployed to Iraq from November 2004 to November 2005 as a machine gunner on a combat logistical patrol team.<\/p>\n

During his military service, he earned the Army Commendation Medal, Army Good Conduct Medal, Global War on Terrorism Medal, and Iraq Campaign Medal, according to National Guard records.<\/p>\n

According to the report, after returning to the US, Ross joined the US Border Patrol in El Paso, Texas, in 2007 and worked as a field intelligence agent until 2015, focusing on drug cartels and human trafficking.<\/p>\n

He joined ICE in 2015 as a deportation officer based in Minnesota.<\/p>\n

Ross has also served as a member of the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force, as a firearms instructor, and as a field intelligence officer, NBC News reported.<\/p>\n

Court records viewed by NBC News show that Ross was seriously injured in June while trying to arrest an immigrant who refused to exit a vehicle.<\/p>\n

In that incident, Ross broke a car window, was dragged about 50 yards, and required 33 stitches for his injuries.<\/p>\n

Ross testified that he feared for his life and repeatedly used his Taser on the driver, Robert Muñoz-Guatemala, who was later convicted of assault on a federal officer.<\/p>\n

NBC News reported that neighbours in Ross’ quiet suburban cul-de-sac about 30 miles from the shooting scene described a tense atmosphere.<\/p>\n

Some observed people moving boxes from Ross’ home, while others came to observe the area. During the 2020 presidential election, pro-Trump and “Don’t Tread on Me” signs were reportedly displayed outside Ross’ home, though his political affiliation is unknown.<\/p>\n

One neighbour told NBC News, “It hurts to think that… because it doesn’t reflect what our community is about, what our state is about.”<\/p>\n

So far, Ross has not made any public statements regarding the incident.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
