“Alderman Supeck seconded the motion and he asked for discussion, and because I have been resigned from the city for better than a year and a half, I simply asked Mayor Reagan, I said, ‘Mayor Reagan, could you please remove my name,’ and he pounded his little hammer, and I said ‘all I’m going to ask is that you remove my name from all your bank accounts’ and at that time, Police Chief Dagley said ‘you’re under arrest.'”…
…Spurling’s sister, Joann Henry, was on the agenda to speak, but was still arrested. Henry says she was handled so roughly she had to go to the doctor for bruises and numbness in her fingers.

Sunbright police have their own video of the meeting, which they plan to show at court next week
