A Mexican town mourns father slain by ICE in Chicago

IRIMBO, Michoacan, Mexico: Family and friends gathered in a small Mexican town on Friday to mourn and demand justice for a 38-year-old father of two who was killed by an immigration agent during an arrest attempt in a Chicago suburb earlier this month. Silverio Villegas Gonzalez left Irimbo, in Mexico’s Michoacan state, for the United States 18 years ago. He returned on Thursday in a coffin after he was shot dead by a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent on September 12. On Friday afternoon, a somber procession followed his coffin to a funeral mass.
