Riverside-Brookfield’s Xavier Mrozik-DeJesus (6) pulls in a catch against Niles West’s Nichalos West (8) Friday, August 30, 2024 in Brookfield.
The Brookfield Police Department is changing where it houses people overnight who have been arrested before they are placed in the custody of Cook County. At its Aug. 26 committee of the whole meeting, the village board considered an intergovernmental agreement with the city of Berwyn for its police department to provide secure lockup and transportation services for people arrested in Brookfield who must be housed overnight. Trustees will vote on and likely pass the agreement at the board’s next meeting on Sept. 9. According to a memo from the meeting written by Police See ARRESTEES on page 6
