Rideshare drivers were reportedly targeted by immigration officials at O'Hare Airport Friday.
Video obtained by WBBM appears to show a federal agent pulling a man from a car and detaining him on the ground in the airport's Uber X lot.
Bailey Koch, a spokesperson for the Illinois Drivers Alliance, says an unknown number of people were detained, calling it a "scary time for drivers."
"They're all just very fearful of what our city looks like right now, where they are on the clock trying to provide for their families and can just be picked up and taken," Koch said.
In a statement, the Illinois Drivers Alliance says, "we stand shoulder to shoulder with all hard working immigrant drivers, families, and essential workers targeted by these unjust actions."
"We are working diligently to gather more information and ensure that every person’s constitutional rights were respected and protected throughout this disturbing incident," the statement concludes.
