Fighting and threats erupted at Village Hall in Sauk Village this week—tied to a financial probe in the south suburb.

The tension was all captured on video Tuesday night. Village Clerk Marva Campbell-Pruitt and Mayor Derrick Burgess got into a heated exchange right in the middle of a board of trustees meeting.

"It just went north," said Sauk Village Trustee Diane Sapp. "I wouldn't say it went south. It went north."

"Disgust, disgust," said Trustee Debbie Williams. "It's getting worse every week."

Williams and Sapp had a front-row seat Tuesday night. They said village meetings can get heated, but this week, it got to a level they had never seen.
