ICE agent's terrifying encounter with migrant driver in Minneapolis

Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent involved in the fatal shooting of Renee Good in Minneapolis, had been dragged 100 yards by a car in June as he tried to arrest an illegal immigrant sex offender.

The previous incident took pace in Bloomington, Minnesota and he suffered gruesome injuries which needed 20 stitches to his right arm, and 13 to his left hand.

On Wednesday, Ross fatally shot Good, 37, inside her SUV in Minneapolis, sparking mass protests in the streets.

The Department of Homeland Security maintains that the officer acted in self-defense after Good 'weaponized' her car and tried to run him over.

Anti-ICE protesters are clashing with police in Minnesota today in the wake of her death.

Democrat Mayor Jacob Frey has blasted ICE's characterization of the shooting and told them to 'get the f**k out of Minneapolis.'

Ross is  'the same ICE agent who got dragged by car back in June, so he has a history,' an FBI agent who spoke to the Daily Mail on condition of anonymity confirmed.

The official shared how typically that previous incident would be used to establish agent's state of mind during Wednesday's shooting.

'State of mind, that's part of a good investigation. You establish what their state of mind was. If they get nervous around cars,' the source added.

The FBI agent noted that he does not believe Ross was justified in his shooting of Good.

'Shot one, sort of can be argued, but shots two and three - they cannot be argued.'

In December, a jury at the U.S. District Court in St. Paul found the driver in the previous incident, Roberto Carlos Munoz, 40, guilty of assault on a federal officer with a dangerous and deadly weapon, and causing bodily injury.

Ross and others had stopped Munoz at 8am on June 17 and were attempting to detain him on an immigration order, the court heard.

They requested that he open his window and door, but he only put the window partially down and refused further orders, the court heard.

The ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations officer then broke the rear window and tried to unlock the door.

Munoz took off at high speed while the officer's arm was trapped in the car, dragging him down the street.

He was dragged at least 100 yards, causing a serious injury to his arm.

Photographs submitted to the court showed a long, deep jagged cut on the right arm which requited 20 stitches.

He also needed 13 stitches in his left hand, the court records said.

In a statement at the time the Department of Justice said: 'On June 17, 2025, law enforcement officers attempted to arrest Munoz, a convicted sex offender, on an immigration order.

'Agents made a traffic stop of Munoz, the defendant was uncooperative and refused to follow directions. After warning Munoz several times, an agent broke the back window so that he could open the vehicle from the inside, the statement said.

It went on: 'Munoz then accelerated his car. As he sped away, the agent’s arm became trapped between the seat and the car frame. Munoz-Guatemala dragged the federal agent for more than 100 yards, while weaving back and forth in an attempt to shake the agent from the car.

'The agent was eventually jarred free from the car but suffered significant injuries to his arms and hand.'

Munoz was illegally in the United States and is from Mexico, the DOJ said, although it had earlier suggested he was from Guatemala.

According to court documents Munoz was charged in December 2022 with repeatedly sexually abusing a 16-year-old girl.

He was ultimately convicted of a fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct felony offense.

When he was arrested in 2022, ICE issued a detention order for Munoz, but it was 'not honored' by local authorities in Minnesota, and he was released from custody, according to the DOJ.

On June 17, 2025, federal agencies including ICE, the FBI and Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) tried to arrest Munoz at his home residence in Bloomington, just outside Minneapolis.

They had a warrant for his arrest for 'unlawful entry into the United States and lack of lawful immigrant status.'

As they watched his house, Munoz came out and got in a champagne-colored Nissan Altima and drove away, and agents followed him.

The officer then drove his vehicle diagonally across Munoz, forcing him to stop,

He delivered commands in English and Spanish for Munoz to place the Alrima in park and show ID, but he did not comply

The officer used his spring-loaded window punch with his right hand to break the driver’s side rear window, and his left to point a Taser at Munoz.

'While the ERO Officer’s right arm was inside the vehicle, Munoz put the vehicle in drive. Munoz turned the wheel to the right to avoid the vehicle in front of him, drove up on the curb, and accelerated away at a high rate of speed.' the court documents said.

'While he was caught in the moving vehicle, the ERO Officer fired his taser at Munoz, striking Munoz with both prongs. The Taser triggered at least twice, delivering a five-second electric charge to Munoz both times. Munoz was undeterred; he continued driving away as the ERO Officer screamed.'

Munoz then began weaving across the road to shake the officer off.

'In total, Munoz dragged the ERO Officer approximately 100 yards down the street, past several houses,' according to the prosecution.

'When Munoz got off the curb and reentered the street, the force of reentering the street knocked the ERO Officer free from the car.'

Munoz continued to flee in the car with the Taser hanging from it, the prosecution said.
