Dozens of Little Village residents marched through the streets Saturday afternoon, days after federal immigration officers swept through the neighborhood and made several arrests.
On Wednesday, agents accompanied by U.S. Border Patrol Commander-At-Large Gregory Bovino conducted a series of raids across Little Village and Cicero, arresting at least seven people. The following day, agents returned to the neighborhood, where they were met by angry residents. The clash resulted in multiple arrests — including two high school students — and the use of chemical munitions by Bovino and other federal officers.
U.S. District Judge Sara Ellis earlier this month forbade agents from using gas and other “riot control” weapons without two warnings or against people who pose no immediate threat.
