The woman driving one of the vehicles, identified as Marimar Martinez, was carrying a semi-automatic weapon and had a history of doxxing federal agents, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
Sanctuary politicians like @JBPritzker have not only turned over their states to violent illegal aliens, they are also actively working against law enforcement in support of lawless anarchists.

The agents fired in self-defense, wounding the attacker, who was arrested along with Anthony Ian Santos Ruiz. An ICE vehicle suffered a tire puncture and was assaulted by the mob, forcing the federals to abandon it to save their lives, while local police withdrew on direct orders from Hein, according to radio transmissions and internal dispatches.
This betrayal of federal law enforcement, at the heart of an anti-illegal immigration operation driven by the Trump administration, allowed the chaos to escalate into a riot with Mexican flags waving prominently at the scene, symbolizing rejection of U.S. sovereignty.
DHS sources reported that the Chicago Police, under the influence of sanctuary policies from Governor JB Pritzker and Mayor Brandon Johnson, rejected multiple calls for assistance, leaving federal agents vulnerable.
Patrol Chief Hein, a 28-year veteran in the department recently promoted to his position, faces accusations of prioritizing leftist agendas over national security.

Demands for his immediate resignation are mounting, highlighting that what he did posed a mortal risk to ICE agents defending the borders under Trump’s «America First» vision. A video of the tensions shows the police withdrawal and the aggressive crowd—watch video.
This incident underscores the urgency of unwavering support for ICE from all levels of government, as demonstrated by the deployment of special operations led by Secretary Kristi Noem to enforce the law and protect agents in the field.
Senior police sources have accused the Chicago department of falsifying details about its initial response, exposing a cover-up attempt that erodes trust in the administration of justice in the city.

Under the Trump administration, strengthening ICE represents a commitment to border security and national sovereignty, firmly opposing policies that prioritize radical activists at the expense of officers who risk their lives.
Gangs, cartel members, and known terrorist organizations have placed bounties on the heads of several of our law enforcement officers.
These violent riots are not about free speech. This is the rule of law vs. anarchy.
We will win. pic.twitter.com/QCVHKt0nfy

Hein’s immediate resignation is essential to restore integrity and prevent future threats in environments like sanctuary cities, where anarchy threatens the rule of law.
