During an immigration enforcement operation in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026, Agent Jonathan Ross was reportedly struck by a vehicle driven by Renee Nicole Good, whom he then fatally shot. Ross was taken to the hospital and treated for internal bleeding to the torso and was released the same day.
The nature and severity of his injuries have been disputed by local officials. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey claimed the agent's injuries were minor, while the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) confirmed the internal bleeding. The FBI is investigating the shooting.

Internal bleeding of the torso refers to a medical emergency where blood escapes from blood vessels and collects inside body cavities like the chest, abdomen, or pelvis. It is often invisible from the outside and can lead to life-threatening conditions such as hemorrhagic shock or organ failure.
Can a patient be treated and released the same day?
While most cases of internal bleeding in the torso require hospitalization for monitoring or surgery, same-day discharge is possible under specific, limited circumstances:
Minor, Low-Risk Cases: Some young, healthy patients with "self-limited" and asymptomatic gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding may be safely discharged for outpatient evaluation.
Standardized Risk Scores: Doctors use specific scoring systems (like the Glasgow-Blatchford Score for GI bleeds) to identify low-risk patients who do not require immediate intervention and can be released early.
Observation & Stability: If the bleeding is minor and stops on its own, and the patient remains hemodynamically stable (normal blood pressure and heart rate), they might be released after a period of observation in the emergency department.
However, most torso bleeding cases are considered medical emergencies and typically involve:
Hospital Admission: To monitor for delayed hemorrhage or sudden drops in blood pressure.
Emergency Surgery: Procedures like an exploratory laparotomy (abdomen) or thoracotomy (chest) are often required to stop active bleeding.
Extended Stay: High-grade organ injuries (e.g., to the spleen or liver) generally require an extended hospital stay to ensure no serious complications occur.
Common Symptoms of Torso Bleeding
Abdomen: Severe pain, swelling, rigidity, or bruising around the navel or flanks.
Chest: Difficulty breathing, chest pain, or coughing up blood.
Digestive Tract: Vomiting blood (looks like coffee grounds) or passing black, tarry stools.
Shock Signs: Rapid heart rate, shallow breathing, dizziness, clammy skin, or loss of consciousness.
