The Minneapolis school system will offer families the option of remote learning for a month, officials said Friday, responding to concerns that children might feel unsafe venturing out in a city where tensions are high over federal immigration enforcement.

The Minneapolis school district closed all schools a day after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer shot and killed a woman in the city this week, and federal law enforcement agents later arrived at a high school , where clashes between agents and civilians ensued, according to local reports.

The Department of Homeland Security is surging immigration agents to Minneapolis this week as it further escalates its crackdown on the Twin Cities region after a right-wing YouTuber alleged fraud by Somalis living there, according to two senior DHS officials.
