Police officers in riot gear lined up outside the Mundelein Village Hall as protesters left a board meeting where the family of a woman fatally shot by a police sergeant again demanded he be fired. The Village of Mundelein held its regular board meeting at 7 p.m. Monday at the village hall two weeks after protesters shut down the board’s October 26 meeting and 11 days after they forced a recess at a rescheduled meeting held under heavy police security on October 29. The family of Mary Alice Love, 37, of Mundelein, and their supporters are demanding the firing of Mundelein Police Sgt. Christopher Brigano, who fatally shot Love at her family’s home on May 11. Video published by the Lake County chapter of the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL) shows at least 10 police officers wearing helmets, several with face shields, standing in a line outside the village hall in the dark as protesters carrying signs walk past them.
