Public reaction has been swift and emotional. Online commenters and activists argue the footage depicts fear and flight, not an intentional attempt to injure law enforcement. Some have accused officers of using deadly force out of frustration as the vehicle escaped their control.
Elected officials have joined the criticism. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez labeled the shooting a “public murder,” saying the video shows a woman attempting to flee rather than attack. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey delivered an even harsher rebuke, demanding ICE leave the city altogether and dismissing claims of self-defense as “nonsense” after reviewing the footage himself.
