(CHICAGO) The Chicago Tribune is reporting that Romeoville Mayor John Noak was pulled over April 12th for allegedly driving under the influence, and that Noak allegedly used strong language against the village’s police chief and two other officers.
The Tribune says a police report on the incident shows that Mayor Noak told police chief Mark Turvey “I’m coming for you” and told two other officers, “You’re done.”
One of the officers wrote in the report, “Due to Noak’s tone of voice and his body language I took his statement to me as hostile and threatening.”
The Tribune says Noak was given citations for alleged DUI, improper lane use and driving without proof of insurance, and handed over his driver’s license and $100 as bond.
Noak is 44 years old and was elected to his third term as Romeoville mayor in 2017. He issued a statement saying “I would like to apologize for the incident that occurred on April 12. Under direction of my attorney … I will not be able to provide a full statement until my case is resolved. Once the case is concluded I will provide a more detailed statement.”
