Councilman Castrilla Points Finger at Ward 1 Campbell

A seemingly uneventful Conneaut Council Meeting turned into complete chaos just minutes before the close of Monday night's regular council meeting.

At Large Councilmen Chris Castrilla, stated that he had something to say and it may upset some people. Castrilla accused Ward 1 Councilman and Council President Hopefull, Dave Campbell of attacking his italian heritage on an online forum hosted by the Star Beacon last year. He further demanded an apology and asked for Campbell's resignation.

His demands were disregarded as Campbell told Castrilla, "Shame on You." Campbell further stated that Chris Castrilla's remarks were completely false and violated Ohio's Revised Code. Campbell plans to seek legal council regarding the matter.

Castrilla's remarks come, just 8 days before the November election.
