The man federal agents fatally shot in Minneapolis Saturday did not appear to be a target of immigration enforcement, according to two eyewitnesses who spoke with The Intercept. One of the witnesses said the man appeared to be acting as a civilian observer.

According to Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara, the victim was a 37-year-old resident of Minneapolis and is believed to be a U.S. citizen.

The shooting came just weeks after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer shot and killed Renee Good and a day after hundreds of thousands of people braved subzero temperatures to march in Minneapolis against weeks of rolling immigration-enforcement raids by ICE, Border Patrol, and other federal agencies.
