Video depicts immigration officer hitting man after car accident altercation.
A car crash involving a U.S. Border Patrol vehicle and subsequent violent arrest in Evanston, a Chicago suburb, has prompted local police to gather video evidence for the Illinois attorney general. Several individuals were arrested after their vehicle collided with the Border Patrol vehicle, resulting in a chaotic scene captured on social media. Federal agents deployed pepper spray, physically restrained individuals, and brandished weapons during the incident. In response to the heightened immigration enforcement activities in the region, Evanston community members have formed "rapid response" teams to alert residents and slow down federal agents. City officials have denounced the actions of the agents and initiated measures to ensure city property as "No ICE Zones". The Evanston Police Department has assigned supervisors to document immigration enforcement events and collect evidence for the Illinois attorney general's Civil Rights Division. Community members and officials have spoken out strongly against the aggressive tactics used by federal agents during the incident.
