Judge Orders ICE Fence Removed amid Protests

A federal judge approved removing the fence ICE agents erected outside the Broadview, Illinois facility, after village officials said it blocked a public road and could hinder first responders. Mayor Katrina Thompson called the decision validation of local law and a win for public safety; the fire department said the barrier lacked a permit and impeded access. With more than 50 people protesting, police handcuffed at least four and redirected crowds. A federal judge granted a restraining order blocking National Guard deployment in Illinois until Oct. 23 at 11:59 p.m., with a hearing set for Oct. 22 at 9 a.m.
