BROADVIEW, Ill. (WLS) -- Federal agents were seen clashing with demonstrators outside of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Broadview on Friday morning.
Chopper 7 was over the scene near 25th and Lexington, where at least eight demonstrators appeared to be detained.
The pushing, shoving and apparent arrests happened shortly after 9 a.m., and it there is no sign of it not letting up.
That clash came after Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino were seen on the ICE facility's roof just before 8 a.m.
Noem and Bovino were accompanied by several armed agents, cameras and a production crew.
Illinois State Police and other law enforcement are on the scene, at the request of Broadview police, for extra enforcement.
The governor is demanding that Noem hold a press conference to answer questions about ongoing immigration raids in the Chicago area.

Right on.
Approve. However, something must be done to cause others to not want to come back there or anywhere else to cause more problems. Peaceful protest is one thing. Assaulting Federal officers or citizens is entirely different.
I don’t want to see “detained”! I want confirmation they are being held pending trial. Then I’d prefer to see “Sentenced to 15 years hard labor”
Nothing so far deters these assholes. Things must get a lot tougher and a lot more punitive.
there is no sign of it not letting up
So it’s letting up, then...
