ICE Deputy Director Madison Sheahan said not answering a federal law enforcement’s call for backup was a "dereliction of duty."

The National Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), the nation’s largest police union, and the Illinois Fraternal Order of Police issued a statement condemning the reports.

...

However, the Chicago Police Department disputed the claim and said its officers did respond to the scene.

"CPD officers did in fact respond to the shooting scene involving federal authorities on Saturday to maintain public safety and traffic control," the department said in a statement to Fox News.

Federal agents reportedly called Chicago police for backup after being confronted by protesters on Saturday.

...

Also on Saturday, videos on social media showed local officers rubbing their eyes, squinting and struggling with the effects of tear gas.

Broadview Police Chief Thomas Mills said his officers had been exposed to tear gas numerous times during previous incidents involving ICE agents. He said that the repeated exposure created a "dangerous situation" for the community and first responders.

Mills also told CBS News Chicago last week that his department had received several false 911 calls, calling it "disturbing."

According to the station, an ICE agent had claimed someone was tampering with the gate at the ICE detention facility in Broadview, but a responding officer turned up to find a CBS News Chicago photographer filming the exterior of the building accompanied by a CBS security guard.

Seems fine to me. I hope they start feeling "threatened".
