The federal immigration agent who shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis last week was a member of a specially trained tactical unit, according to sources who spoke to CBS News. The agent is part of Homeland Security Investigations’ Special Response Team (SRT). These teams handle high-risk operations like armed arrests and counter-surveillance. The shooting occurred during an operation in south Minneapolis. Details about the operation and the circumstances leading to the gunfire remain unclear. The woman who died was identified as 44-year-old Gwendolyn Jeanette Raymond. The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is leading the investigation. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) confirmed an agent was involved but has not released further details, citing the ongoing investigation.
