On June 10, 2025, a car drove into a crowd of protesters in Downtown Chicago around 6:15 PM. The protesters were demonstrating against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Hundreds of people were present when the incident happened. A police officer tried to stop the car, but the driver kept moving through the crowd. It is still unclear how many people were hurt.
The Chicago Police Department said they were waiting for reports from officers at the scene before deciding whether to charge the driver. Most of the protest in Chicago was peaceful, but some demonstrators fought with police and damaged police vehicles. Because of this, public transportation in the downtown area was temporarily stopped. A Chicago city official posted on social media about the damaged police cars and shared his frustration over what he saw as growing unrest.
