Civilians in Chicago are taking matters into their own hands, tailing officers, guarding stores, and patrolling neighborhoods.
A recent incident in the East Side of Chicago, a working-class Latino and Black community, highlights the tensions between residents and federal agents. A car chase ended in the neighborhood, with federal agents pursuing a car allegedly driven by an undocumented immigrant.
As residents like Pauly came out to check on the commotion, more federal agents arrived, and the crowd turned into a kind of protest. Pauly found three metal containers on his street, including tear-gas canister, smoke-grenade can, and pepper-ball projectile round.
