A man allegedly opened fire on Border Patrol agents in Chicago on Saturday. The incident occurred near 26th Street and Kedzie Avenue while agents were conducting immigration enforcement operations. According to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the shooter was driving a Jeep when the shots were fired.
In addition to the gunfire, agitators also hurled a paint can and bricks at the agency’s vehicles during the operation, DHS reported.
Chicago police responded promptly and cleared the scene, but the shooter remains at large.
“This incident is not isolated and reflects a growing and dangerous trend of violence and obstruction,” DHS stated in a post on X. “Over the past two months, we’ve seen an increase in assaults and obstruction targeting federal law enforcement during operations. These confrontations highlight the dangers our agents face daily and the escalating aggression toward law enforcement. The violence must end.”
