A top Department of Justice (DOJ) official indicated on Sunday that the FBI would not be investigating the shooting of a woman in Minneapolis earlier this month that sparked protests against the Trump administration in the city.

“We don’t just go out and investigate every time an officer is forced to defend himself against somebody or putting his life in danger,” Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche told Fox News in an interview on Sunday, adding that the woman who was shot and killed, Renee Good, was rioting and engaged in an “act of terrorism” against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.
