A retired Chicago-area cop expressed frustration with Mayor Brandon Johnson’s refusal to cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

"What's happening in Chicago and actually the state of Illinois, but I'll talk to you about Chicago, is they're under orders from the mayor not to cooperate with ICE. In fact, he famously said that the Chicago Police Department will never assist ICE, even if it's constitutionally required," Tom Weitzel, who was chief of police in Riverside, Illinois , told Fox News Digital.

Weitzel served as police chief in the Chicago suburb, less than an hour outside the city, from January 2008 to May 2021.
