Protests have broken out in Minneapolis and several other U.S.
cities a day after a 37-year-old woman was shot dead by a federal agent from ICE, the Immigrations and Customs Enforcement Agency.
People gathered around a makeshift shrine of flowers and candles, and hundreds of Minnesota residents held a vigil for the victim, who has been identified as Renee Nicole Goode.
Videos of the incident posted on social media show immigration officers ordering a person to get out of a car in a residential part of Minneapolis as one of them tries to open the driver's side door.
The vehicle can then be seen reversing and beginning to drive away.
Seconds later, several gunshots are fired and the vehicle crashes into a parked car.
President Donald Trump reacted to the shooting on social media, saying the ICE agents had acted in self-defence.
Speaking later at a press conference, the Homeland Security Secretary, Kristi Noem, said the woman had tried to use her car to run over the officers and called it domestic terrorism.
But the high-profile Democratic politician, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, said Ms Goode had been murdered whilst fleeing for her life.
Lynette Rainey-Grandel was there at the site of the incident.
She told the BBC she tried to intervene after realising that someone had been shot.
Speaking to the BBC's US partner CBS News, the Minneapolis police chief Brian O'Hara said law enforcement officials are trained to avoid situations where the use of deadly force may be required.
So what more do we know about this woman whose youngest child, aged six, also lost their father three years ago?

President Trump has signed a memorandum ordering the withdrawal of the United States from 66 international organisations, nearly half of them UN bodies.
He's deemed them as operating contrary to the interests of the United States.
Many of those organisations were founded to combat climate change and promote peace and democracy, as Danny Eberhard reports.
Human-inspired robots, aptly named humanoids, have been doing all sorts at the annual Consumer Electronics Trade Show in Las Vegas this week.
