Latino Leaders Condemn ICE Over Incidents in Chicago
Latino leaders have expressed dismay over recent immigration enforcement operations in Chicago, which resulted in a fatal shooting and other incidents.
An Immigration, Customs and Enforcement (ICE) officer fatally shot Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez, who tried to evade arrest by driving his car at officers and dragging one of them.
- Villegas-Gonzalez was pronounced dead at a hospital.
- On the same day, Willian Gimenez was detained by ICE agents while driving in Chicago's Little Village neighborhood.
Kevin Herrera, Gimenez's attorney, believes the detention was retaliation for his involvement in a lawsuit against Chicago leaders, Home Depot, and an off-duty police officer.
The incidents are part of the "Operation Midway Blitz" campaign, targeting so-called sanctuary laws in the state.
