Warren city councilman arrested after refusing to wear mask inside TCF Center

DETROIT – A Warren city councilman refused to observe Detroit’s rules when it comes to COVID safety and police were not having it.

“I was leaving the TCF Center and saw a commotion. I was exiting and it was a guy standing there arguing with police about whether or not he was refusing to wear a mask basically,” said Wayne County Commissioner Jonathan Kinloch.

Kinloch recorded the incident on his cell phone, sharing it with Local 4.

Kinloch identifies the person as Warren City Councilman Eddie Kabacinski. In the video, Kabacinski refuses to wear his mask inside the TCF Center.

“More specifically, it’s a vaccination site. So it is mandated and of course the officers were trying to explain that to the councilman, but he refused to even recognize that,” Kinloch said.
