Shots Fired: ICE Agents in Chicago Suburb ‘Boxed in by 10 Cars’
(WND)—Federal agents Saturday were rammed and boxed in by 10 cars in Broadview, Illinois, near Chicago, where crowds have been gathered for days protesting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) actions. So reports DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin.
“Pritzker’s Chicago Police Department is leaving the shooting scene and refuses to assist us in securing the area. There is a growing crowd and we are deploying special operations to control the scene,” McLauglin wrote in an X post.

Reportedly, the agents were unable to move their vehicles and had to exit, Fox News reported. One of the drivers accused of ramming into the law enforcement vehicle was armed with a semi-automatic weapon, according to McLaughlin. She said officers “were forced to deploy their weapons and fire defensive shots at an armed U.S. citizen.”
This morning, during routine patrolling in Broadview, in the same area of Chicago that law enforcement were assaulted yesterday, our brave law enforcement officers were rammed by vehicles and boxed in by 10 cars.

The post indicated that the armed woman “drove herself to the hospital to get care for wounds.”
McLauglin noted the woman, who was a U.S. citizen, was named in a CBP intelligence bulletin. She reportedly doxxed agents and posted online, “Hey to all my gang let’s f–- those motherf––– up, don’t let them take anyone.”
According to DHS, no law enforcement officers were seriously injured during the incident.

According to Fox, the agents were reportedly performing a routine patrol in Broadview when the alleged assault occurred.
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said on Friday that she and her team were blocked from accessing the Village of Broadview Municipal Building to use the restrooms. The secretary and her team were apparently stopping for a “quick bathroom break.”

Founded by entrepreneur Jordan Sarmiento, this isn’t just insurance; it’s a shield for your family’s future, built on the unshakeable belief that private enterprise delivers better results than bureaucratic red tape.
Picture this: Jordan’s own story hits close to home for so many of us. A sudden medical emergency landed him with a staggering $95,000 bill. Under a traditional plan? He’d be buried in debt.
