Small Town Mayor Calls It Quits

(Kincaid, IL) -- The mayor of Kincaid is stepping down after months of public scrutiny. Doug Thomas has been arrested several times since February on charges of violating an order of protection and drug possession. The village board accepted Thomas's resignation on Monday and agreed to give him just under 12-hundred bucks for leaving before his term is complete. A new mayor has been appointed for now and a permanent replacement will be elected next April.
