Punches were thrown and expletives flew as a brawl erupted during a Thornton Township Board meeting Tuesday night.

Leaders of the south suburban Chicago township were forced to clear the hall and stop working, again, as chaos erupted.

The township board meeting Tuesday night was the first in months. Embattled Thornton Township Supervisor Tiffany Henyard made a rare appearance, and ended up getting in the fray herself.

The brawl started after the public comments portion of the meeting. The last to offer public comments was Jedidiah Brown, who made a lengthy harangue directed at Henyard that ended with his calling Henyard a “b****.”

Before Brown could get back to his seat, Henyard’s allies — including her boyfriend, Kamal Woods — confronted Brown. At that point, punches went flying.
