Federal agents used pepper balls and tear gas against anti-ICE protesters at a Chicago-area facility Friday during a tense standoff in Broadview, Illinois.

The charges came days after Attorney General Pam Bondi warned that protesters who assault federal officers would be hit with criminal charges.
A Democratic mayor running for Congress in Illinois was tear-gassed Friday morning during a small protest outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in suburban Chicago, he said.
