FBI, ATF, DEA PULLED TO FUEL ICE CHICAGO BLITZ, INVESTIGATIONS STRAINED

NBC Chicago reports that ICE’s mid-September enforcement surge in Chicago drew personnel from FBI, ATF, and DEA to assist with immigration arrests, raising alarms about strain on ongoing organized-crime and public-corruption probes. City officials and advocates warn the diversion undermines public safety and erodes trust in immigrant communities. Rights groups say coordinated raids deter victims and witnesses from cooperating with police. The piece complements earlier reporting on the same surge with a video package and local reaction.
