BROADVIEW, Ill. (WGN) — Tensions ran high Sunday night outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Illinois, where about 20 to 30 protesters gathered in the Chicago suburb of Broadview.
What was happening inside the gates remained unclear, but outside, demonstrators clashed with immigration agents and officers.
Crews with NewsNation affiliate WGN observed armed and masked agents in full gear guarding vehicles leaving the property, including a bus and two SUVs.
Each time the gates opened, protesters shouted and jeered, while ICE officers twice fired pepper bullets in their direction.
WGN reached out to ICE for comment but has not received a response.
