Broadview ICE facility protests continue as judge rules on fence

A judge ordered a fence outside an ICE processing center in suburban Broadview to come down, though the fencing remained in place on Friday night.

Federal officials have until Tuesday to take it down, as ordered by the federal judge. The judge ruled in favor of the village, saying that it was put up illegally without approval and that it blocked emergency vehicles from accessing the street.

One day following the ruling, protests continued outside the facility as state police kept watch outside the gates. Notably absent was the National Guard, which had been patrolling just 24 hours earlier.

“We will protect the safety of all of our communities and the safety of all of our community members, and they do not feel safe right now," said protester Casey Caballero.
