Officials are investigating a Cook County Forest Preserve officer after a viral video shows he ignored a woman being harassed for wearing a Puerto Rican flag T-shirt. The woman, who said she had rented a pavilion in the preserve, asked the officer for help after a man repeatedly and aggressively asked if she was an American citizen.
