Pritzker about DHS: "They are the ones that are making it a war zone"

"Driving the news: A man and woman allegedly used their vehicles Saturday morning to strike a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent's car and box in other agents' vehicles near 39th Street and South Kedzie Avenue, according to a complaint by the U.S. Department of Justice. One of the agents then fired shots and struck one of the drivers, Marimar Martinez, who was later taken to a hospital and released."

""They're raiding neighborhoods where, instead of going after the bad guys, they're just picking up people who are brown and Black and then checking their credentials, 'Are you a U.S. citizen?' I don't know about you, but I don't carry around papers that say I'm a U.S. citizen," Pritzker said Sunday on "State of the Union." "They are the ones that are making it a war zone.""

"After a raid on a South Shore apartment building on Tuesday night, photos of trashed rooms and allegations of agents tying residents' hands, including children, with zip ties led Pritzker to call on state agencies to investigate the incidents. Department of Homeland Security told ABC News the building was targeted because it's "frequented" by members of a Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua. "Some of the targeted subjects are believed to be involved in drug trafficking and distribution, weapons crimes, and immigration violators.""

A man and woman allegedly used their vehicles to strike a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent's car and other agents' vehicles in Brighton Park. An agent fired shots and struck driver Marimar Martinez, who was hospitalized and released. Martinez and Anthony Ian Santos Ruiz face federal charges for assaulting and impeding a federal officer and remain in custody pending court appearances. A South Shore raid produced photos of trashed rooms and allegations that agents tied residents' hands, including children, with zip ties, prompting a gubernatorial request for state investigations. DHS said the building was frequented by members of Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua and that some targets are suspected of drug trafficking, weapons crimes, and immigration violations. Ald. Jessie Fuentes was handcuffed after demanding a warrant at a hospital, drawing condemnation from city leaders.
