The ICE agent who fatally shot protester Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis is a Trump-supporting Christian and war veteran who has a Filipina wife, according to his family.
Jonathan Ross, 43, has been identified as the agent who opened fire on Good on Wednesday after the feds allege she tried to mow him down with her SUV on the suburban street.
As anti-ICE protests erupted across the country and Democrat leaders ramped up their divisive rhetoric in the wake of the shooting, the agents’ family rushed to his defense, telling the Daily Mail “you would never find a nicer, kinder person.”
“He’s a committed, conservative Christian, a tremendous father, a tremendous husband. I couldn’t be more proud of him,” his dad, Ed Ross, said.
The Iraq War veteran married his wife, who hasn’t been identified publicly, in 2012.
His in-laws are doctors who live in the Philippines, the outlet reported.
Ross’ dad said his son’s wife was a US citizen but wouldn’t say how long she had been in the country.
In the past, the wife has shared photos on social media of herself posing alongside a US Border Patrol helicopter.
Ross is believed to have worked as an ICE agent since at least 2013.
Based in Minneapolis full time, he is a member of the ICE ERO Special Response Team — a specially-trained tactical unit, law enforcement sources told The Post.
The details on Ross’ background emerged after it was revealed he’d had a run-in with an illegal immigrant in Bloomington, Minnesota last June that saw him dragged 100 yards during a traffic stop.
ICE agents had conducted a traffic stop on Roberto Carlos Munoz, a serial illegal immigrant from Guatemala with a lengthy rap sheet, records show.
Ross broke the back driver’s side window after Munoz refused to exit his vehicle when officers approached his car.

The suspect then sped away with Ross’ arm caught between the seat and the car frame — dragging him more than 100 yards, the Justice Department said at the time.
He was hospitalized with “significant injuries to his arm and hand,” requiring 33 stitches, but made a full recovery, according to the feds.
In the wake of Wednesday’s fatal shooting, President Trump quickly praised Ross’ actions — arguing he was acting in self-defense after being struck by the protestor’s car.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, too, said he was justified and described the protester as a domestic terrorist.
