NYC anti-ICE protest draws 2,000 in latest unrest since shooting death of Renee Nicole Good

More than 2,000 anti-ICE demonstrators packed a corner of Central Park on Sunday in the latest massive protest since an ICE agent fatally shot Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis last week.

The crowd marched down a stretch of Fifth Avenue under the close watch of the NYPD, as protesters flashed signs slamming federal immigration officials and President Trump — just days after passions were inflamed by the controversial Minnesota shooting.

“I’m here today to overthrow Trump’s Gestapo, which is ICE,” one demonstrator from Rockland County who identified himself only as Glenn, 61, told The Post.

“Renee Good was murdered by ICE and you’re asking me if we think it’s OK to meet them with violence? Yes,” he said. “They are kidnappers. If violence is what they understand, speak in the language they understand.”

Despite violent rhetoric, the demonstration remained raucous but peaceful through late afternoon.

The Trump administration — especially Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem — has said ICE agent Jonathan Ross fired the fatal shots in self-defense after Good struck the federal cop with her vehicle during a face-off with federal agents in Minneapolis last Wednesday.

The White House blamed the fatal encounter on left-wing agitators interfering with federal agents.

Good, a 37-year-old mother of three, was struck with three bullets as she drove away from an ICE operation, appearing to clip Ross with the vehicle before she was shot, according to video footage.

The incident has sparked massive protests in Minneapolis and throughout the country.

In Manhattan Sunday, demonstrators at the “No Wars, No Kings, No ICE” rally held signs reading “Sic Semper Tryanus” — Latin for “always a tyrant” — as well as “ICE Out” and “ICE = Murder.”

“Said it loud, say it clear,” the crowd chanted. “ICE is not welcome here.”

Several protesters maintained they have no gripe with the NYPD — and some even approached cops at the scene and thanked them for keeping the peace.

“We feel safe because of the NYPD,” one 79-year-old protestor said. “Even though ICE shot that woman in the face, we feel much safer with the NYPD here with us today.”
