Border Patrol Disrupts Children's Halloween Parade As Clashes Continue: Reports

Federal agents deployed tear gas seven times in 22 days despite a restraining order, disrupting a Halloween parade in a Chicago neighborhood, sources said.

  • On Saturday in Old Irving Park, Border Patrol agents deployed tear gas during a neighborhood Halloween parade, leaving after about 30 minutes while many families stayed home.
  • A WTTW senior reporter noted that, earlier this month, a court order limited tear gas use, yet reporting says agents deployed it for the third straight day in Old Irving Park.
  • Kolp retrieved a tear gas canister from his yard and said `I could see two fully uniformed agents in military fatigues literally tackling a guy right here in my front lawn`,
  • A rapid response team member reported a 67-year-old woman was knocked to the ground, and Tricia McLaughlin said detainees, including Luis Villegas, were arrested for assaulting and impeding an officer.
  • Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino is due in court on Tuesday to answer questions about tear gas use despite Judge Sara Ellis' order, amid over 2,800 apprehensions since last month.
