Burris son arrested during incident outside nightclub
Daily Herald - Monday, August 21, 1995
The son of former Attorney General Roland Burris was arrested with another man about 2 a.m. Sunday for allegedly provoking a crowd outside a downtown Chicago nightclub.
Roland W. Burris II and Richard Porter, both 28, were both charged with mob action, a misdemeanor.
The two men were among about 40 people waiting to get into the Cairo nightclub.
The crowd had spilled out to the street because the club was at its maximum capacity, authorities said. The club, which has a 400-person capacity, is open until 4 a.m.
They were arrested after causing the crowd to become rowdy, Chicago police Lt. William Powers said.
When police tried to disperse the crowd, Burris and Porter yelled at police, saying, You white coppers are picking on us because were black. You wouldnt do this if we were white, Powers said.

Burris honored
