On Sunday, anti-ICE agitators stormed Cities Church congregants in St. Paul, drawing widespread outrage and condemnation from Christian and political leaders. In one video circulating online, agitators can be heard chanting, "Justice for Renee Good," and "Who needs justice, we need justice," as they stood inside the church during the service.
Minnesota has seen anti-ICE unrest since the fatal ICE-involved shooting of Renee Nicole Good on Jan. 7.
Cities Church lists eight pastors of varying roles, including David Easterwood, who shares the same name as the acting director of ICE’s St. Paul field office, though it has not been confirmed whether the two individuals are the same person.
Fox News Digital reached out to Cities Church via their online form to seek confirmation.
Following the demonstration, the Justice Department launched an investigation.
Attorney General Pam Bondi said, "Attacks against law enforcement and the intimidation of Christians are being met with the full force of federal law."

"There is no low these radical leftists won’t stoop to," White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson told Fox News Digital Monday morning. "Jacob Frey and Tim Walz have whipped these rioters into a frenzy and turned them loose to wreak havoc on Minneapolis."
"Frey and Walz should be ashamed for inciting such chaos, but the Trump Administration will continue enforcing the law," she added.
