The X post you're linking to from Mikel Jollett (

) on January 24, 2026, analyzes bystander video footage of a fatal shooting in Minneapolis involving ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) agents.Key claims from the post:
  • A man (the victim, a 51-year-old U.S. citizen) was tackled and pinned to the ground during an altercation.
  • Before any shots were fired, another person in a green jacket reaches in, takes a gun from the man on the ground, and walks away with it calmly.
  • This happens prior to ICE agents opening fire.
  • Conclusion in the post: The victim was unarmed at the moment he was shot (multiple times), and the incident amounts to murder in the street by federal agents.
The thread includes four images (screenshots/stills from video) highlighting the sequence: the green-jacketed individual approaching, reaching down, removing the firearm, and leaving — all before gunfire starts. Jollett emphasizes this as "VERY IMPORTANT" evidence contradicting any claim that the man was reaching for or brandishing a weapon during the shooting.Broader context from replies and related posts:
  • Multiple users in the thread share similar breakdowns, with some claiming the man was shot 9–12 times after being disarmed.
  • Other angles (including from bystanders in pink or different perspectives) are referenced, with speculation that some footage may have been seized.
  • Related discussions accuse ICE of excessive force, execution-style killing while the person was helpless on the ground, or acting as an unaccountable "masked violent gang."
Surrounding incident details (from public reports around the same time):This appears tied to a high-profile January 2026 shooting in Minneapolis involving federal agents (primarily ICE), where a U.S. citizen was killed. Reports mention:
  • It was at least the third such federal-agent-involved shooting in the city in a short period.
  • Minnesota Governor Tim Walz called aspects of federal actions "disgusting."
  • DHS initially claimed self-defense; local officials (e.g., Minneapolis mayor) and eyewitness videos disputed this.
  • Autopsy/private postmortem reportedly showed multiple wounds (arm, breast, head in one related case, though names like "Renee Good" appear in some coverage — possibly a separate but similar incident).
  • An FBI agent reportedly resigned over issues with how the Justice Department handled the investigation.
  • Protests followed, with calls to abolish ICE or reform federal enforcement.
The post and thread went viral quickly (tens of thousands of likes/reposts), fueling outrage over police brutality, federal overreach, and accountability under the current administration.If you'd like me to dig into a specific angle (e.g., more video analysis, official statements, or related events), just let me know!
