Feds used tear gas near schools in Chicago, alarming children and families during immigration raid.
In October 2025, federal immigration agents conducting "Operation Midway Blitz" in Chicago’s Logan Square neighborhood deployed tear gas near Funston Elementary School and a children’s play cafe, sparking widespread fear among families and children.
Agents, arriving in unmarked vehicles, used non-lethal force after being obstructed by protesters, according to DHS, though witnesses reported no prior warning and described chaotic scenes with young children traumatized by sirens, smoke, and panic.
Even U.S. citizens, including teachers and nannies, expressed fear of detention.
The incident has raised concerns over the psychological toll of enforcement actions on children and communities, with lasting anxiety reported among residents despite no direct targeting of most families.
