  • A federal grand jury indicted 21-year-old Diego Emmanuel Reyes on charges tied to allegedly ramming an ICE agent's pickup truck during a Chicago enforcement operation on Oct. 4, 2025.
  • Newly released video and the indictment say Reyes first struck the rear of the white pickup, then accelerated and pushed it forward while the agent was performing official duties.

  • Operation Midway Blitz was part of an immigration enforcement surge on Chicago's Southwest Side, and federal officials said the case reflects a zero-tolerance stance toward attacks on law enforcement.
