A shocking video circulating on X shows a driver ramming an Immigration and Customs Enforcement vehicle in Chicago, the latest in a series of violent attacks on federal agents.
The black SUV was caught on camera plowing into the back of the ICE truck in heavy traffic Saturday, the Department of Homeland Security said. The driver then chased the vehicle and rammed it again as bystanders looked on in disbelief.
Federal agents drew their guns to stop the driver from fleeing. It was not immediately clear if the suspect was apprehended.

The attack came just hours after Border Patrol agents shot a gun-toting woman when an anti-ICE mob boxed in federal officers with 10 vehicles elsewhere in the city.
The woman, identified as Marimar Martinez, and another driver, Anthony Ian Santos Ruiz, were both arrested and labeled “domestic terrorists.”
“The scene became increasingly violent as more domestic terrorists gathered and began throwing smoke, gas, rocks, and bottles at DHS law enforcement,” the agency said.
Several Border Patrol agents were injured in the chaos.
“These attacks on our brave law enforcement officers must END,” DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has since deployed special operations teams to Chicago.
“Secretary Noem has taken action to deploy additional resources to restore law and order. We will not allow domestic terrorists to attack our law enforcement,” McLaughlin said. “If you lay a hand on law enforcement, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
