ICE officers in Chicago had to deal with multiple surprise attacks from the mostly-peaceful types over the weekend.

Rioters and terrorists rammed their cars into ICE vehicles, boxed them in, and harassed officers. In one incident, an armed insurrectionist was shot by DHS agents.

According to Fox News' Bill Melugin, Chicago police officers were specifically instructed to stand down while their brothers in blue were attacked.

More evidence of this from dispatch:

While the attacks were ongoing, Illinois Gov. JD Pritzker said President Trump was "invading" his state by using the National Guard to stop violence.

Here are some videos of the attacks on ICE agents over the weekend:

The National Fraternal Order of Police condemned Chicago PD for their reported abandonment of brothers in arms.

'Details are still emerging, but it appears that officers from the Chicago Police Department were ordered not to assist a group of ICE agents while they were physically threatened by what appeared to be an angry mob,' Yoes said. 'Let me be clear, both the National FOP and the Illinois FOP believe that when an officer calls for assistance, you answer, no matter what.'

Thankfully, not all Chicagoans are trying to kill federal agents for rounding up criminals.
