John Mulaney has postponed his comedy shows in Minneapolis after Wednesday’s deadly shooting by an ICE officer.
The former SNL star, 43, is currently touring his ‘Mr. Whatever’ show and was scheduled to perform at The Armory on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
However, on Thursday evening he took to X with a message announcing that the shows will be postponed because the ‘situation is so unsafe’ in the city.
His decision comes after a mother-of-three Renee Nicole Good, 37, was shot dead by a federal agent during immigration operations in Minneapolis on Wednesday.
‘What’s happening in your city is heartbreaking,’ the comedian wrote in his note.
‘I hate to postpone shows in a town going through such awful challenges and such grief, because it feels unfair to the audience,’ he went on.

He continued: ‘Still, I don’t feel comfortable asking thousands of people each night to leave their homes, gather at the venue, and then make their way home when the situation is so unsafe.’
‘Tickets for this weekend will be honored for their respective days of Friday through Sunday, April 10th, 11th and 12th. For any questions or refunds, please contact your point of purchase or Ticketmaster.’
He wrapped up the note apologizing to his fans: ‘I am sorry to anyone who is disappointed. I know a fun stand-up show could be a nice distraction, but it doesn’t sit right with me to put anyone at risk.’
‘Respectful. Smart move,’ one fan wrote in the comments.
Another added that it was a ‘good call.’
‘Hard decision but the right thing to do, John.’
‘Probably a good decision. Thank you for being reasonable,’ someone else wrote.
Good was shot dead on Wednesday while driving an SUV that was blocking a residential street during protests against an ICE operation.
The agent responsible, identified as Jonathan ‘Jon’ Ross, has been branded a ‘murderer’ by furious Democrats but has enjoyed the full support of the Trump administration, who argue he acted in self defense when it appeared Good intended to run him down with her car.

Good’s friends have revealed she was part of a network of activists co-ordinated through her six-year-old son’s charter school who were actively resisting ICE.
‘She was a warrior. She died doing what was right,’ a mother named Leesa who has a child at the same school as Good’s son told The New York Post.’
Good and her wife, Rebecca, moved to the area just last year and enrolled their six-year-old boy in classes at the woke charter school.
They are understood to have fled the US after Trump’s victory in the 2024 election, going briefly to Canada before settling in Minneapolis.
There, Good became involved in the school community and the local ‘ICE Watch’ group, which is a coalition of activists who seek to disrupt ICE raids.
