Tensions continued over the weekend in Minneapolis, as protesters clashed in the streets with law enforcement, following the second shooting there in about a week involving a federal officer.

The Department of Homeland Security said that on Wednesday, a federal law enforcement officer shot a person, who they say had fled a traffic stop and then, along with two other people, began attacking the officer.

That incident followed the fatal shooting of Renee Good, a 37-year-old mother, on Jan. 7. DHS officials said Good was allegedly attempting to run over law enforcement officers when an ICE officer fatally shot her -- a claim that local officials have disputed.

The suspect allegedly began to resist arrest and "violently assault an officer" when two other people "came out of a nearby apartment and attacked the law enforcement officer with a snow shovel and broom handle," according to DHS.

Sosa-Celis allegedly "got loose and began striking the officer with a shovel or broom stick," and the officer shot the suspect in the leg, according to DHS. Sosa Celis and the other two suspects, who were not identified but alleged to be undocumented," were arrested, according to DHS.
