ICE Deploys Pepper Spray As Hundreds Rally At Broadview; ‘Illegal’ Fence Sparks Showdown

Hundreds gathered outside ICE’s Broadview processing site despite a new perimeter fence and prior use of tear gas and pepper spray. Local officials call the fence illegal and say chemical agents endangered residents and first-amendment activity; ICE has not responded to new complaints. The clashes follow a week of similar confrontations and growing weekly protests, with elected officials present. Tensions remain high as the village demands the fence be removed and demonstrators plan to return.
