Anti-ICE protests that began in Los Angeles over immigration raids have spread nationwide, with rallies in cities like New York, Chicago, Boston, and Seattle. In Chicago, a car rammed into protesters on East Monroe Street, injuring a 66-year-old woman. The incident is under investigation, and the video is going viral.
The unrest began on May 6 after ICE targeted Latin American immigrants. Tensions rose further after 100+ arrests, including a union leader, on June 7. Trump has warned of forceful crackdowns, and California’s Governor is challenging troop deployment in court.
During the protest against ICE in Downtown Chicago earlier today, a vehicle was caught on video nearly striking multiple pedestrians and a cyclist. Protesters can be seen briefly pursuing and hitting the car before it sped away from the scene without stopping. #chicago… pic.twitter.com/UcJe4xDPEm
