[00:00:00] Speaker 1: We're learning some important details about the ICE officer who shot and killed Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis. He was involved in another incident last summer where he was dragged about 100 yards after getting his arm trapped in a vehicle while trying to make an arrest, according to court documents. The officer in the June case is identified in court documents as Jonathan Ross. A senior Department of Homeland Security official confirmed that case involved the same officer who shot and killed Good this week. According to court records, in June 2025, Officer Ross punched through a window to open the car after the driver refused to lower his window or open his car door. Authorities say that driver was a convicted child sex offender and was in the country illegally. As Ross reached over the broken glass to unlock the car, the driver started accelerating and dragging the officer, according to documents. Ross then fired his taser at the driver, and the driver kept driving as Ross screamed. Ross eventually broke free of the car and fell to the street. Images from the court filing show Ross with more than two dozen stitches on different cuts on his body. Last month, the jury convicted the driver of using a deadly weapon to inflict injury to an officer following a trial. During the trial, Ross testified that he pursued fleeing suspects previously and said, they do erratic behaviors, they take great risks, they make just extreme movements with their vehicles. Officer Ross has 10 years experience with ICE, a senior Homeland Security official told CNN. He's a U.S. Army veteran who deployed to Iraq with the National Guard from 2004 to 2005, according to his own testimony. DHS says the officer has had advanced training in perimeter control, advanced firearms training and hostage rescue. He's also maintained an expert marksman qualification on all issued firearms.

Summary

Court documents reveal new details about ICE officer Jonathan Ross, who shot and killed Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis. Ross was involved in a June 2025 arrest incident where he punched through a car window after a driver refused to comply; the driver, described as a convicted child sex offender in the U.S. illegally, accelerated and dragged Ross roughly 100 yards with his arm trapped. Ross fired a taser, eventually broke free, and suffered multiple cuts requiring more than two dozen stitches. A jury later convicted the driver of using a deadly weapon to injure an officer. Ross testified about the risks posed by fleeing suspects and erratic vehicle movements. DHS says Ross has 10 years with ICE, is an Army veteran who deployed to Iraq (2004–2005), and has advanced training (perimeter control, firearms, hostage rescue) with expert marksman qualifications.
