BROADVIEW, Ill. (AP) — Federal agents have detained several people near an immigration facility outside Chicago. This facility has been a frequent target for protesters since President Donald Trump’s administration’s surge on immigration enforcement this fall. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem visited the Broadview processing center on Friday as demonstrators gathered for a weekly show of opposition to the crackdown. Some protesters have tried to block vehicles from entering or leaving the area. Federal agents have used tear gas and other projectiles against the crowds. Local law enforcement increased its presence this week, closing streets and setting up barriers.
