The fatal shootings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti by immigration agents and a sweeping federal operation have transformed daily life in Minneapolis.

Tensions are escalating in the wake of the shooting of Alex Pretti.

Walking through a cloud of tear gas, bookstore owner Greg Ketter let loose his anger at immigration agents. His sales skyrocketed.

Some Minneapolis small-business owners say they fear for their personal safety, their community's safety and their businesses' survival amid ICE's presence in the city.

With the Trump administration accusing local police of dereliction and some in the community feeling unprotected, outnumbered Minneapolis officers find themselves facing difficult choices.

If there’s been a soundtrack to life in Minneapolis in recent weeks, it’s the shrieking whistles and honking horns of thousands of people following immigration agents across the city.

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, who said Pretti was there to “perpetuate violence,” was following deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller’s lead, according to a report in Axios. Miller in turn, blamed Customs and Border Protection for faulty information and potentially not following White House instructions.

President Trump often blusters his way through a crisis, refusing to back down. Minneapolis tested the limits of that strategy.
