The Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent who fatally shot Renee Good last week in Minneapolis — Jonathan Ross — suffered internal bleeding to his torso following the incident, according to two U.S. officials briefed on his medical condition.
The extent of the bleeding remains unclear. The Department of Homeland Security has confirmed Ross was injured, but it has not responded to CBS News’ requests for additional details.
Video from the scene showed Ross walking away after the incident. Ross has not returned to work, one source said, without explaining why.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has previously said Ross was taken to a hospital after the shooting and released the same day. She said he was recovering and described him as an experienced law enforcement officer who believed he was acting in self-defense and protecting fellow agents.
“The officer was hit by the vehicle. She hit him. He went to the hospital. A doctor did treat him. He has been released,” Noem told reporters on Jan. 7.
Ross, a 10-year law enforcement veteran with ICE, was also seriously injured in a separate incident in the Minneapolis area in June, court records show. In that case, he was dragged by a car during an attempted arrest and required 33 stitches and hospital care.
U.S. Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino told CBS News on Sunday that Ross “has had several threats against his life,” adding that he is in a safe location and recovering.
