A Portland police officer has been reassigned after being captured on video appearing to agree with the tactics used by federal officers which led to the shooting death of a Minnesota woman this week,

Agitators erected barricades and took control of a Minneapolis street after Wednesday's fatal ICE shooting, with no police presence observed in the area.

Many police departments for decades have had policies in place prohibiting officers from firing at vehicles to stop a fleeing suspect.

The Trump administration and some Democrats have drawn divergent conclusions from bystander video of the fatal shooting of a woman in Minnesota by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent. How can one side say the agent was "recklessly using power" and the other determine he "fired defensive shots"?

That woman should be alive today, and that officer should be swiftly facing criminal charges,” one Bay Area attorney said, pointing to a 2018 East Bay incident for comparison.

When a federal immigration agent shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis today, the details were fresh but the story was familiar. Once again, a law-enforcement officer had fired into a moving vehicle, even though experts on use of force, and many agencies’ rules, prohibit or discourage the practice as dangerous and ineffective.
