Body camera video shows Robbins Mayor Darren Bryant’s arrest after Calumet Park traffic stop – CBS2 (Chicago)
Robbins Mayor Darren Bryant was behind the wheel of a white sedan when Calumet Park police pulled him over for making an illegal turn. He asked a total of 15 times why he was pulled over before police pulled him from the vehicle and placed him under arrest. During that interaction, police asked him 10 times to provide his license and insurance, but he did not. "You don't know who you're arresting right now," Bryant said after he was handcuffed.

Audio and summary
The mayor is a clown. Always playing the race card. He is also a teacher in CHSD 218. I think the board at 218 needs to reconsider his employment. Of course the union will back him.
They NEED TO IDENTIFY HIM !!! If he leaves they will know who to look for . Been watching too much social media thinking they know the law . Just like asking for a supervisor. The officer DOESN’T have to comply to the request .
Must have Braindeads ego . He’s the mayor of one of the poorest towns whose only claim to fame is hanging African flags on their light poles yet take American funding. Thinks he’s above the law
