Nearly 1,000 people gathered to express their outrage at City Hall in Philadelphia on Thursday after a woman was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis.

As a memorial grows for Renee Good, 37, on the street where she was shot Wednesday, tensions are high in Minneapolis and across the country as the Trump administration defends the officer and vows to continue its immigration crackdown.

About 1,000 people were at City Hall, many of them holding candles and signs in support of Good. They joined protesters from across the country who have held similar demonstrations, speaking out against the shooting. 

Dozens of police officers were also at City Hall to make sure the vigil ended peacefully.

Many people told CBS News Philadelphia they believe the shooting was tragic and said the agent needs to be held accountable. 

"This was absolutely an unjustifiable shooting, I think that's very, very clear," Heidi Devine, of Moorestown, New Jersey, said. "What angers me as much as that tragedy is that the administration is twisting it and denying it, and saying things that are absolutely false. And that just infuriates me."

Attendees of the vigil said the video of the ICE officer shooting and killing Good proves it was not justified.

"It's clear to me that she was murdered," Dina Portnoy said.

Attendees at the vigil are not only honoring Good, but all of the immigrants who they feel have been unfairly targeted by ICE.

"We're not standing by and letting this happen in our country," Bob Terrio said. "We want liberty and freedoms. We don't want them taken away."
