Chicago Heights aldermen block bid for police superintendent
Three Chicago Heights aldermen vow to block Mayor Angelo Ciambrone's plan to create a police superintendent post paying 70000. They skipped a key meeting citing quorum questions and aim to boycott future sessions to halt the mayoral appointment. The council previously stalled action as lawmakers demand justification and argue the city already has a capable police leadership.
