Given the current uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 variants and the rapid growth of interest and participation in our parade and festival, this decision was made in the interest of public safety, as well as concerns surrounding the quality of the event. Further, public safety is a primary concern for the Committee. While potential public safety mitigation policies and standards were considered for participants and spectators, it was determined that in this case it would be difficult to implement and enforce them along a parade and festival route with no defined points of ingress and egress. This decision is not one that is made lightly and we thank you all for your understanding. We look forward to seeing you at next year's event. Best Regards, “The Viva Mexico” Festival and Parade Committee ===== PDF PAGE 43 ===== [Extraction: OCR (rendered-page OCR)] nie Mexican od, Cultural Ridcpendesce, Center Dear City of West Chicago, The Mexican Cultural Center would like to thank the City of West Chicago for the past years of support to honor the cultural heritage of West Chicago through Mexican Independence Day, When we went all virtual in 2020, it was a hard hit on our community that has struggled through this pandemic. Although we were very optimistic about 2021, after our last planning meeting with City staff in August, it was clear that we did not have the resources or support to make the event safe and successful. Canceling this year’s event was a very hard decision, and as our statement which was published on the City’s website states, we felt it was the best decision. We did do a large amount of work continuing the plan that was originally proposed in 2019 for the art project with the Mexican State of Tlaxcala and are still working to expand that partnership, as a beneficial program for both communities. We did also reach out to all vendors to limit exposure as much as possible due to the pandemic. Please find our attached reporting detailing the expenses for this work. We are continually grateful for the partnership of the City over the past six years. We look forward to safer times ahead where we can highlight the amazing community we have here in West Chicago. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have about this report.

A complainant stated a subject was following him, making obscene gestures. While on the phone with dispatch the suspicious individual pepper sprayed the caller before fleeing the area. Officers located the subject running north on Post Oak Cir. The subject was directed by officers to stop and while doing so, the suspect threw a can of pepper spray into the street. The subject was wearing a tactical vest and hard knuckled gloves. There were bulges in the subject’s jacket indicative of a weapon or weapons. The subject was handcuffed and a search was performed resulting in a number of flash bang grenades and fragmentation grenades being found on his person. A perimeter was established and the DuPage County Sheriff’s Office Bomb Squad was requested to the scene. The Bomb Squad x-rayed the devices and determined that the fragmentation grenades were explosive devices. There were also six “flash bang” devices. Also located on the subject were a knife, two Tasers, a fast strike whip and two pepper spray canisters. The suspect was transported to the Police Station and interviewed by Officer Mielke and Detective Herbert, subsequently admitting to spraying pepper spray in the victim’s face.

The suspect’s image was on the fraudulent driver’s license presented to Rent-A-Center. Detective Herbert searched through past area law enforcement bulletins for images matching the photo on the license. A bulletin put out by the Aurora Police Department appeared to show a photo of the suspect from Rent-A-Center. Reports were obtained from the Aurora Police Department and the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office that led to identifying a suspect. The driver who delivered the furniture was shown a photo lineup and selected the suspect. Detectives learned that the suspect had moved and now lived in Woodridge.

After some time, the suspect appeared in the lot and entered a vehicle. Detectives approached the suspect before she could drive away. After brief questioning, the suspect admitted she knew where the furniture was and in whose possession the furniture was. The suspect was placed under arrest and transported to the Police Station, and declined to speak further with detectives. The DuPage County State’s Attorney’s Office approved a charge of Identity Theft.
