The immigration officer who fatally shot Minneapolis anti-ICE protester Renee Nicole Good suffered internal bleeding after being clipped in the harrowing encounter, a Department of Homeland Security official told The Post.
Veteran ICE agent Jonathan Ross suffered the bleeding to his torso, the DHS official said.
The DHS official did not elaborate on how severe the internal bleeding was, but Ross was hospitalized after the incident and released later that day.
He was also able to walk away from the scene, according to video captured of the aftermath.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said the day of the shooting that Ross followed his training.
“He went to the hospital, a doctor did treat him, he has been released, but he’s gonna spend some time with his family,” Noem said.
