Footage showing ICE agents allegedly dragging a disabled woman from her car in Minneapolis has gone viral.
Tensions are heightening in the Minnesota city following the death of Renee Nicole Good, who was fatally shot by an ICE agent last week.
And just two blocks from where the mother of three was shot, an unidentified woman could be seen getting dragged from her car on Tuesday (January 13).
Footage showed several masked ICE agents speaking to the woman before two of them managed to grab her using the driver's side window and wrestled her to the ground.

"I’ve been beat up by police before," the woman shouted as she was forced out of her vehicle.
"I’m disabled, I’m trying to go to the doctor up there, that’s why I couldn’t move. I am an autistic disabled person, I’m trying to go to the doctor," she added.
ICE agents were then seen dragging the woman away as one bystander asked, 'where is your humanity?'
Meanwhile, another witness could be heard saying, 'all you do is hurt'.
The Independent reports that some local media suggest the woman was attempting to 'wedge' the agents between her vehicle and another blocking the street. However, this doesn't appear to be shown in the clip.
Protests regarding ICE have taken over the streets of Minneapolis in recent days, with ICE official Charles Marcus telling Fox News that at least 60 people have been charged for allegedly assaulting officers.
UNILAD has reached out to Homeland Security for comment.
On January 7, 37-year-old Renee was fatally shot during a protest against ICE in Minneapolis.
US Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem claimed that Renee was a 'domestic terrorist' and was attempting to kill the ICE officer, who was later identified as Jonathan Ross, with her car.
Over on Truth Social, President Donald Trump accused Good of being 'a professional agitator', as he continued: "The woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing, and resisting, who then violently, wilfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot her in self-defense."
Now-public video footage has challenged this narrative, however, given that it showed Renee attempting to drive away from the scene when Ross shot her three times.
Minnesota's mayor, Jacob Frey, has also called the 'terrorist' claim 'bulls**t', as he said: "We've [all got] two eyes, and I can see a person that is trying to leave.
"I can see an ICE agent that was not run over by a car. That didn't happen."
