Federal agents shoot woman they say 'boxed in' authorities on Chicago's South Side

Authorities were on patrol when they were “rammed by 10 cars,” according to a statement from the Department of Homeland Security. One of the drivers “was armed with a semi-automatic weapon,” prompting officers to open fire, DHS said. A woman was shot and was taken in fair condition to Mount Sinai Hospital.
A woman was shot by U.S. Border Patrol agents Saturday morning on Chicago’s South Side, marking the second shooting since President Donald Trump’s administration launched an aggressive immigration enforcement operation in the area last month.
Tricia McLaughlin, a spokeswoman for the Department of Homeland Security, said the shooting erupted after patrolling agents were “rammed by 10 cars” and “boxed in.” Agents then fired “defensive shots” when they discovered the woman “was armed with a semi-automatic weapon” while driving one of the cars.
The time and location of the shooting weren’t immediately known. No law enforcement officials were hurt.
