- A man sheltered a Venezuelan migrant mother and her 7-year-old daughter during a military-style immigration raid in a South Shore building.
- ICE agents conducted a raid, zip-tying residents, migrants, and squatters, while some residents were left undisturbed, raising questions about prior knowledge.
- A mysterious map and makeshift door stickers were found, indicating units as 'vacant,' 'tenant,' or containing 'firearms,' with some units raided accordingly.
- 37 people were arrested, with claims of involvement in drug trafficking, weapons crimes, and immigration violations, though residents saw no signs of criminal activity.
- The mother and daughter hid in a unit marked 'vacant' on the map, staying with the neighbor for three days before their current whereabouts became unknown.
