BROADVIEW, Ill. (WLS) -- Crews appeared to start dismantling the Broadview Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility fence late Tuesday night, ahead of an 11:59 p.m. Tuesday deadline set by a judge.

Late Tuesday night, a flat-bed truck that appeared to be carrying fencing material was allowed into the restricted area.
