Five individuals are now facing federal charges, accused of assault or resistance against agents at the ICE facility in Broadview. All made court appearances on Monday.

Two are still in custody including a man who supporters say is neurodivergent.

Footage obtained by ABC7 from Saturday shows the arrest sequence of a 26-year-old Oak Park resident, who faces allegations of threatening to kill border patrol agents and reportedly grabbing an agent’s helmet, pulling the agent’s head down during the arrest.

Ivery is being detained, at least until his next hearing.
