ICE agents arrested a police officer Thursday morning in the Chicago suburb of Hanover Park, accusing him of being an unlawful immigrant from Montenegro.

The Department of Homeland Security says the officer, Radule Bojovic, overstayed a tourist visa that expired in 2015.

According to the department, Bojovic was “encountered during a targeted enforcement action” in ICE’s immigration-focused operation in Illinois.

Bojovic was seen in a Facebook post from the police department provided by DHS, which was taken in August after the officer graduated from the suburban law enforcement academy.

DHS released a statement on the arrest Thursday afternoon, saying in part, “Governor J.B. Pritzker doesn’t just allow violent illegal aliens to terrorize Illinois’s communities, he allows illegal aliens to work as sworn police officers. Radule Bojovic violated our nation’s laws and was living ILLEGALLY in the United States for 10 years.”

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem also commented on social media, saying “ICE arrested an illegal alien working as a sworn police officer in Chicago suburb… radical sanctuary politicians have allowed criminal illegal aliens to infiltrate our school districts, communities and even police departments.”
