联邦特工在芝加哥莱克维尤社区移民逮捕行动中使用催泪瓦斯

摘要

联邦特工在芝加哥莱克维尤社区执行移民执法行动时使用催泪瓦斯,引发社区抗议并引起对使用武力的担忧。

联邦特工于周五在芝加哥莱克维尤社区开展移民执法行动,导致使用催泪瓦斯并引发随后的社区抗议。事件发生在靠近瑞格利球场的住宅区莱克伍德大道和罗斯科街附近。WTTW新闻获得的视频显示,特工拘留了一名似乎正在房屋工作的男子,促使数十名居民与特工对峙。随着紧张局势升级,特工在没有发出声音警告的情况下使用催泪瓦斯驱散人群。

这是联邦特工连续第二天在芝加哥使用催泪瓦斯,也是21天内的第六次。执法行动已超出传统目标区域,现已波及莱克维尤和林肯公园等富裕社区。第44区议员贝内特·劳森批评这些战术,称“移民与海关执法局在我们社区实施的非美式、非民主的恐吓和威胁战术,是对芝加哥一切价值观的直接攻击。”

加强的执法行动也影响了当地学校。维克公园的普里茨克小学和林肯公园的弗朗西斯·W·帕克学校等机构因应行动实施了软封锁或取消户外活动。家长们对执法行动靠近学校表示担忧,一位母亲形容情况“非常可怕”。

联邦特工使用催泪瓦斯一直是一个有争议的问题。此前一名联邦法官发布命令,禁止特工在未发出警告的情况下使用催泪瓦斯,除非在特定情况下。近期事件引发了对该命令遵守情况的质疑。

社区成员和地方官员持续表达对联邦执法行动的反对,强调这些行动扰乱了日常生活,并可能侵犯居民权利。
