... [sections ommitted]

(b) No parade or athletic event is permitted on any portion of the public way of the city of Chicago unless a permit allowing such activity has been obtained from the office of emergency management and communications.

... [sections ommitted]

(t) Any person who knowingly interferes with any other person or organization lawfully conducting a parade, public assembly or athletic event or any person violating any of the provisions of this ordinance, or any of the provisions of the regulations promulgated hereunder, shall be subject to incarceration for up to 10 days and fined not less than $50.00 nor more than $1,000.00.


Since it seems pretty clear that CM is a "parade," I wonder if you could file a complaint under § 10-8-330(t) against the ******face in the black SUV for disrupting it? It probably wouldn't be too hard to show that he "knowingly interfer[ed] with it."
