Armed FBI agents clad in tactical gear stormed a Chicago apartment building reportedly connected to suspected terrorist Elias Rodriguez, who allegedly gunned down two Israeli Embassy workers in Washington, DC, last night.
Video posted by NBC Chicago shows at least eight agents wearing camouflage and armed with rifles entering the front gates of the apartment building on a leafy green street in Chicago’s East Albany Park neighborhood.

Rodriguez, 31, had allegedly chanted “Free, free Palestine” moments before he confessed to gunning down the couple, identified as Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim, as they left the American Jewish Committee’s ACCESS Young Diplomats Reception just after 9 p.m.
Investigators are looking into whether Rodriguez is behind a hateful 900-word manifesto dated a day before the slayings bearing his name that began circulating on social media after his arrest.
The manifesto appeared to suggest the killings were an act of political protest inspired by Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza.
