Allegations of Racial Profiling Surface After ICE Questions Shoppers at Illinois Walmart
Cicero, IL – An incident in a Walmart parking lot in Cicero, Illinois, on October 22, 2025, has drawn significant public attention following the release of a video by local photographer mike_kelly_photography. The footage shows two uniformed individuals, identified by their vests as 'Police U.S. Border Patrol,' questioning a civilian woman. In the video, agents are heard asking, 'Are you from here? Where's here? What country? Were you born here?' The photographer, who captured the interaction, asserted that the operation involved agents approaching 'random civilians' and was 'not focused on specific targets,' further claiming that individuals were stopped 'purely based off skin color.' The photographer described these actions as 'textbook racial profiling,' alleging that such incidents occur daily in Chicago and its surrounding suburbs. This video, uploaded on October 23, 2025, has since garnered over 272,000 views and thousands of interactions, fueling public discourse on the methods of immigration enforcement and the allegations of racial profiling within communities. The incident underscores the ongoing tensions and public scrutiny surrounding federal agency operations in civilian areas.
