More arrests by immigration officers are underway in various communities in the US state of Minnesota, as large-scale rallies against unchecked violence of ICE's crackdown operations erupt in major cities.
Authorities say over 2,000 immigration arrests have been made in Minnesota since early December.
US Homeland Security Kristi Noem told Fox News on Sunday that the Twin Cities, the latest target in President Donald Trump's immigration campaign, is bracing for additional federal agents to protect officers and continue enforcement.
On Sunday, in one neighbourhood filled with single-family homes, protestors screamed and honked car horns, attempting to disrupt the operations of armed officers.
There were some clashes and several people were sprayed with chemical spray before the agents rammed into the doors of a house.
A handcuffed man was led away. A woman in tears said the man was her husband and that they were told he had an "order of removal."
In Robbinsdale, a man was detained by four officers at a stoplight in the middle of the street and taken out of his car.
A rapid-response activist who was driving by bashed the federal agents for not respecting the rule of law.
"They're going to do whatever they what," the activist said, adding this "does not help anybody" and will continue to escalate.
Earlier, 37-year-old Renee Good was fatally shot in her car on the snowy streets of Minnesota by an ICE agent, which led to dozens of demonstrations in cities across the country, including New York, Los Angeles and Washington D.C.
Hundreds of activists coordinated by a coalition of groups gathered in Oakland, California, as part of a nationwide weekend of action called "ICE Out for Good."
Protest organiser Nancy Latham said: "The message of this particular event is that we want ICE out of our communities, we don't need them, they are not making anything more safe, they in fact are making things much more dangerous, mostly for vulnerable populations, but for all of us. And more broadly, we do not want a police state."
"We do not a secret police that is kidnapping our neighbours, that is pulling families apart. And then even more broadly we want an end to the MAGA regime."
Trump on Sunday defended the officer who killed Good, insisting the woman was "violent" and "radical."
He said: "Well everyone's seen it. The woman was very violent. She's a very radical, very sad what happened. Her friend was very radical, you know, go and drive, drive.
Trump further noted that people can't be treating law enforcement that way.
