'Put cuffs on you': Dolton meeting with Mayor Tiffany Henyard, Lori Lightfoot turns to chaos

A hastily called Dolton village meeting ended in chaos as opponents and supporters of controversial Mayor Tiffany Henyard almost came to blows on Monday.

Police had to break up the skirmish as Henyard and trustees cleared the room. The altercation happened immediately after trustees voted 4-2 to reinstate former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s investigation into Henyard's activities, overriding Henyard’s veto.

"We will not let anyone stop us or obstruct our ability to get to the facts," Lightfoot said almost inaudibly as Henyard and trustees made several attempts to talk over her.

The news capstoned more than two hours of contention – where village residents packed the chamber to air their grievances against the embattled mayor and her lack of transparency on the spending of village finances.

Chicago's Music Box Theatre to undergo major renovation for enhanced patron experience

One of Chicago’s best-loved movie theaters will be shut down for a month this summer for an extensive renovation aimed at enhancing patrons’ experience and preserving its historic charm.

The Music Box Theater in Lakeview, an architectural gem and neighborhood anchor since 1929, will undergo the renovation to address wear and tear accumulated over its 95-year history.

"We’re gonna kind of give a little makeover to our lovely old, old 95-year-old space," said Ryan Oestreich, General Manager of the Music Box Theater. "It needs to be modernized, but not in a way we’re going to lose anything. The aesthetics are going to be exactly how it was back in 1929."

Mother speaks out after her 2 kids drowned over Memorial Day weekend: "If it don't look right don't do it"

A family in West Philly is grieving after two kids drowned in a pool over Memorial Day weekend.

FOX 29’s Cheyenne Corin spoke to the heartbroken mother just hours after she made the gut-wrenching decision to pull them off of life support.

Her son and daughter both died after drowning in a pool, and as she reflects on their lives, she also has a message for other parents.

"They weren't in there for more than like three, four minutes," said the grieving mom. "And then they called their names. I say, I don't think they were playing when they jumped in. They were at the bottom of the pool."
