Area Woman Wants Lawman To Quit

A Swanton woman and a national human rights organization are asking the village’s police chief to resign…over his apathetic response to her complaints of racial intimidation by her neighbors. Anika Fields wants Police Chief Adam Berg to step down after her numerous complaints to his department have gone unanswered. A resident of Paigelynn Place in the village, Fields says she has endured racial slurs, threats, and intimidating behavior from neighbors since she moved into the residence in 2015.
