JAKARTA - Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Kash Patel stated that 110,000 gang members were active on the streets of Chicago City.

We know that the streets of Chicago have 110,000 gang members. That's right, you didn't hear wrong. This year alone 1,200 shootings and 360 murder cases have occurred," Patel told Fox television station, as quoted by RIA Novosti, Wednesday, October 8.

As reported by ANTARA, US authorities will implement firm measures to eradicate crime in Chicago.

On October 5, US President Donald Trump deployed 300 National Guard personnel to Chicago.

Protests erupted in the city, and armed Border Patrol agents reportedly used chemical irritation against demonstrators.

On October 6, the State of Illinois, which oversees the City of Chicago, filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration to prevent the deployment of the National Guard in the state and city territory.

The court has scheduled a hearing of the case on October 9, but has rejected requests to stop deploying troops until the legal process is complete.
