Local Minnesota Paper Runs Front-Page Pic of ICE Agent Pepper-Spraying Face of Protester Pinned to the Ground

The Minnesota Star Tribune’s front page on Friday showed two ICE agents pinning a Minneapolis protester, one aiming pepper spray at his face, as demonstrations continue amid what DHS calls the largest immigration enforcement operation in U.S. history. Coverage also detailed the Minneapolis shooting of 37-year-old Renee Good by an ICE agent, disputed self-defense claims, and President Donald Trump’s remark that the video can be viewed two ways. Separately, agents detained a five-year-old and his father who sought asylum in December 2024, and a U.S.-born woman described injuries and a racial slur during a two-day detention.
