The U.S. Secret Service said their agents approached a South Side school in Chicago on Friday, but were turned away. Chicago Public Schools officials had earlier said it was U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents who approached the school.

CHICAGO -- The U.S. Secret Service said its agents visited a Chicago elementary school Friday while investigating a threat, hours after school officials mistakenly claimed that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents had come to the building.

After Chicago Public Schools (CPS) initially claimed that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents visited a South Side elementary school Friday morning, it was later confirmed that this was not the case.
