In Minnesota in the U.S., crowds gathered for a vigil outside the State Capitol, honouring a woman killed in a fatal shooting during an immigration enforcement operation.
This as hundreds of people took to the streets of Portland on Friday, calling for federal immigration agents to leave the city.
Meanwhile, the Minneapolis school system has offered families the option of remote learning for their children for a month, concerned that they may feel unsafe venturing into the city.
Faith leaders addressed crowds in Minnesota on Friday as they gathered for a vigil outside the State Capitol, to honour Renee Good, the female U.S. citizen shot and killed by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement or ICE officer.
Iman Asad Zaman, Muslim American Society of Minnesota said: "We are here because an innocent human being, a good human being, having dropped off her children to school,
attempting to exit from a war zone situation, was shot and murdered at point blank range. We are here because that is not the society we wish to live in. We are here because that is fundamentally unjust. We are here because we wish to change it. And there are those among us who might feel that we do not have power, because the guys with the guns have the power."
Protests too in Portland in the state of Oregon as hundreds took to the streets calling for federal immigration agents to leave the city. This sign reads "Out of Portland now."
A new, 47-second cell phone video was published online by a Minnesota-based conservative news site and later re-posted on social media by the Department of Homeland Security.
It shows the shooting from the perspective of ICE officer Jonathan Ross, who fired the shots.
"That's fine dude, I'm not mad at you." Good's wife then starting to goad the officer. "You wanna come at us. Go get yourself some lunch big boy".
(Officer) "Get out of the car."
U.S. President Donald Trump defended the ICE agent who shot and killed 37-year-old Good in Minneapolis on Wednesday. "We will always be protecting ICE and we're always going to be protecting our Border Patrol and our law enforcement."
