Video above: Chicagoland immigration raids lead to over 3,000 arrests in two months
CHICAGO (WGN) – Shots were reportedly fired at U.S. Border Patrol agents during immigration enforcement operations in Little Village Saturday afternoon.
The Department of Homeland Security said agents were conducting immigration enforcement operations near 26th Street and Kedzie Avenue when an unknown man driving a black Jeep fired shots at agents and drove off.
DHS further alleges a group of people also threw a paint can and bricks at Border Patrol’s vehicle.
The Chicago Police Department was called in for help and cleared the scene.
CPD said their officers were sent to the 2500 block of South Kedzie Avenue for reports of shots fired at federal agents. Officers secured the scene and there are no reports of anyone hit by gunfire.
One police officer, however, was accidentally hit by a GMC pickup truck driven by a 20-year-old woman. The officer suffered minor injuries and was taken to an area hospital in good condition, while the woman was issued two citations, according to CPD.
The suspect who reportedly fired shots at the agents and the Jeep he was driving have not been found.
„This incident is not isolated and reflects a growing and dangerous trend of violence and obstruction. Over the past two months, we’ve seen an increase in assaults and obstruction targeting federal law enforcement during operations. These confrontations highlight the dangers our agents face daily and the escalating aggression toward law enforcement. The violence must end,“ DHS said.
No other information was released.
