Chicago \u2013 The morning began harmlessly. Dayanne Figueroa only wanted to grab a coffee before heading to work. Then she drove into a scene that looked more like a war zone than a residential street in West Town: people shouting and honking \u2013 the now-familiar signal that ICE is in the neighborhood. Seconds later, a gray SUV driven by federal agents crashed into Figueroa\u2019s car. It was no accident, no misunderstanding, but part of an operation that had spiraled completely out of control. Heavily armed men, weapons drawn, masked federal agents, unmarked vehicles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The images show agents exiting their vehicle after the collision, weapons raised, aiming at Figueroa without identifying themselves or offering any explanation. They rip open her door, drag her by her legs out of the car as bystanders shout: \u201cYou hit her! We have it on video!\u201d The agents ignore the crowd, shove the woman into a red minivan, and drive off. Her car remains in the middle of the street \u2013 engine running, keys in the ignition, her coffee still in the holder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
