Protests erupted in Chicago against increased immigration enforcement by federal agents. Federal officers used tear gas on demonstrators blocking an ICE facility in Broadview, resulting in injuries and at least three arrests.

This follows a recent deadly shooting during an ICE operation and mirrors similar clashes in Los Angeles. The incident highlights the ongoing tensions surrounding immigration enforcement under the Trump administration.
