WARNING: The above video contains confronting footage.
Video has emerged of a confrontation in the US city of Minneapolis that ended with an immigration enforcement officer shooting a driver dead.
Renee Nicole Good was killed by the ICE agent as she drove on a residential street in the midwestern city.
Good's Honda appeared to be blocking the street to the officers' unmarked car – though it is not apparent if it was a deliberate effort or an attempt at a three-point turn.

"Get out of the f—ing car," one masked agent says as he walks to her vehicle, before grabbing the door handle.
She reverses less than a metre before moving forward.
As she does, another agent in front of the car pulls out a handgun and fires three shots in quick succession.
"What the f— did you do?" the bystander filming the confrontation shouts as Good's Honda smashes into a parked car.
In a Truth Social post, President Donald Trump described the shooting as "self-defence".
"The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully (sic) and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot her in self-defence," Trump said.

"Based on the attached clip, it is hard to believe he is alive, but is now recovering in hospital.
"The situation is being studied, in its entirety, but the reason these incidents are happening is because the Radical Left is threatening, assaulting, and targeting our Law Enforcement Officers and ICE Agents on a daily basis."
Trump posted a video of the shooting from further down the road.
An ICE statement described Good's actions as "domestic terrorism".

"One of these violent rioters weaponised her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them—an act of domestic terrorism," the statement read.
"An ICE officer, fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow law enforcement and the safety of the public, fired defensive shots. He used his training and saved his own life and that of his fellow officers."
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey described the Trump administration's characterisation of the shooting as "bulls—".

"This was an agent recklessly using power that resulted in somebody getting killed," Frey said.
"We've dreaded this moment since the early stages of this ICE presence in Minneapolis.
"They are not here to create safety in this city, what they are doing is causing chaos and distrust.
"ICE, get the f— out of Minneapolis."

Good's mother Donna Ganger said her daughter was "not part of anything like that".
"Renee was one of the kindest people I've ever known," Ganger told the Star Tribune.
"She was extremely compassionate. She's taken care of people all her life."
The 37-year-old leaves behind a six-year-old child. The child's father died two years ago.
Governor Tim Walz has put the National Guard on standby in fear of riots breaking out.
"Donald Trump and his administration may not care much about Minnesota — that's been pretty evident — but we love this state," he said.
"To Minnesotans, on the National Guard, they're there to protect you and protect your constitutional rights.
"These are our neighbours. They don't wear masks. They don't bust in from somewhere else. They're not here to cause hassles to you or what we saw today, the tragedy."
Riots broke out in the city in 2020 after the death of George Floyd at the hands of a Minnesota police officer.
