The normally bustling corner of Front and Main streets in Downtown Wheaton was even busier Saturday afternoon as more than 100 sign-waving protestors gathered to protest a local landlord. The group's members, led by long-time Wheaton resident Jessica Prewitt, were speaking out against local businessman Robert Sandberg.
