Photograph of protesters standing outside the Cuyahoga Falls City Building following Mayor Robert Quirk's firing of Cuyahoga Falls Police Chief Gene Fawley. Fawley and his son Wayne, a probationary police officer, were both fired after Quirk alleged that Fawley concealed his son's recent disorderly behavior at a bar--Wayne was escorted out of an Akron bar for causing a disturbance while intoxicated and carrying a gun; he was not charged with a crime. After a hearing conducted by the Cuyahoga Falls Civil Service Commission, Fawley was reinstated to the police force, but demoted to captain and given a 55-day suspension.
