Protests against ICE planned across Ohio, US after shootings in Minneapolis and Portland, Oregon – The Land
Protests against immigration enforcement are planned for cities and towns across the country on Saturday after one federal officer fatally shot a woman in Minneapolis and another shot and wounded two people in Portland, Oregon.
The demonstrations come as the U.S. Department of Homeland Security pushes forward in the Twin Cities with what it calls its biggest-ever immigration enforcement operation. President Donald Trump’s administration has said both shootings were acts of self-defense against drivers who “weaponized” their vehicles to attack officers.
Indivisible, a social movement organization that formed to resist the Trump administration, said hundreds of protests were scheduled in Texas, Kansas, New Mexico, Ohio, Florida and other states. Many were dubbed “ICE Out for Good” using the acronym for the agency Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Indivisible and its local chapters organized protests in all 50 states last year.
Protests are planned for Saturday in Solon and Lyndhurst, according to the Indivisble website. Additional protests are scheduled for Akron, Medina and Alliance. Protests have already been held in Cleveland. Details on the upcoming protests are available on the Indivisble website.
In Minneapolis, a coalition of migrant rights groups called for a demonstration at Powderhorn Park, a large green space about half a mile from where 37-year-old Renee Good was shot in a residential neighborhood on Wednesday. They said the rally and march would celebrate Good’s life and call for an “end to deadly terror on our streets.”
Cleveland City Council President Blaine A. Griffin issued a statement condemning the shooting of Good.
“Donald Trump’s decision to arm thousands of unvetted, minimally trained recruits and unleash them on our cities made this kind of violence inevitable. The thuggery ICE regularly displays has no place in America. Anyone with a conscience should be outraged. Only those without a conscience would immediately—and dishonestly—blame the victim as the Trump administration has,” Griffin said in a message he emailed to media.
Protests held in the neighborhood so far have been peaceful, in contrast to the violence that hit Minneapolis in the aftermath of the killing of George Floyd in 2020. Near the airport, some confrontations erupted on Thursday and Friday between smaller groups of protesters and agents guarding the federal building used as a base for the Twin Cities crackdown.
The Trump administration has been surging thousands of federal officers to Minnesota under a sweeping new crackdown tied in part to allegations of fraud involving Somali residents. More than 2,000 officers were taking part.
Some officers moved in after abruptly pulling out of Louisiana, where they were part of another operation that started last month and was expected to last until February.

Large pothole damages vehicles on I-90 east
CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – A large pothole has damaged multiple vehicle on I-90 east during the Thursday morning commute.
This happened near Warren Road on the Cleveland/Lakewood border.
Police said at least 12 vehicles suffered damage and at least three were undriveable. There are no reports of injuries.
Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) crews were called to the scene to make repairs.
This caused a major back-up for drivers coming from the west side.
At 7:15 a.m., the drive-time from Westlake to Cleveland was a total of 45 minutes. Normally, that drive takes about 10 minutes
19 News went to Rad Air who took several calls from drivers needing repair help after hitting the pot hole.
Manager Paul Arlesic says pot holes can cause a lot of damage.
“Just a tire, you could be anywhere from 190 dollars. If it’s up to suspension repair and wheel repair you could be looking into the thousands,” said Arlesic.
He wants to remind drivers to get regular maintenance on their vehicles. Arlesic says even if you don’t see immediate damage hitting a pot hole causes a wear and tear.
“Every crack in the road, that tires going up and down, the struts working up and down. All the suspension is constantly moving,” said Arlesic.
ODOT was able to fill in the pot hole on I-90 Thursday morning.
