FROM DAILY MAIL: Federal agents had to deploy tear gas after anarchy erupted outside of an immigration facility in Chicago.
Demonstrators, including a Democratic mayor and congressional candidate, clashed with federal agents outside the Broadview ICE facility on Friday.
The confrontation saw agents firing chemical agents, dragging protesters from the roadway, and making arrests.
Amid the mayhem, cameras caught masked officials and politicians, including Evanston Mayor Daniel Biss and Democratic congressional candidate Kat Abughazaleh – who claimed she was body slammed by an agent.
Biss, who is running for Congress, accused ICE of trying to “intimidate” peaceful demonstrators.
“They drove a van into us, then they tear gassed us,’ Biss said in a video posted to X. “It was terrifying… but we will not be intimidated.”
DHS reports that the operation has led to nearly 550 arrests in the Chicago area in less than two weeks.
Friday night protesters continued to test ICE agents, who deployed tear gas and pepper shots.
