Mass Shootings Including Police Officer Shot in Cicero, Illinois After Venezuelan Transnational Gang Member Had Been Arrested by I.C.E.

Over the weekend in Cicero, Illinois—a southwest suburb of Chicago—there were five total people shot, including one police officer and one person killed.

This comes just a week after eight people were shot, with three killed just south of Cicero in the Gage Park neighborhood.

The Gateway Pundit previously reported on the Gage Park incident, which has now been confirmed to be Venezuelan and likely illegals.

Recent reporting from WBBM Chicago indicates the shooter of the police officer has been identified as a known “street gang member.” Police have arrested 19-year-old Giovanni Saldivar.

At this time, it is undetermined whether or not the man is directly connected to Tren de Aragua, a Venezuelan Transnational gang. However, Tren de Aragua-connected gang members have been known to be in the area.

This marks a considerable uptick in Cicero’s murder rate. According to Crimegrade.org, Cicero has a murder rate of 0.0432 murders in 1,000. In the last year, they have seen a spike in violence.

It’s relevant to note there have been considerable changes as Illinois’ sanctuary state status has funneled an influx of illegal immigrants to the City of Chicago. This has had a spillover effect in the suburbs.
