It was the third sweep targeting gang members and others with criminal records in Chicago's suburbs in the last 17 months, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. All had previous arrests on drug and other charges, including aggravated assault, firearms, theft, and traffic violations. All were men, mostly in their late teens and early 20s.
