Migrants Forced Out of Chicago Police Stations Amid Winter Concerns

Migrants staying at a Chicago Police station in the Pullman community claim they were forced to spend the night outside in freezing temperatures after being told to leave the station. Volunteers who work with migrants said some were taken to a shelter, but those who remained were told they could no longer sleep in the lobby. The police initially denied the claims but later stated that the migrants were allowed to sleep at the station. Concerned volunteers have found temporary shelter for some migrants, while a network of churches will be providing temporary shelter for others.
