Ill. Officer Seriously Wounded in Grocery Store Shooting
An Oak Forest police officer was in serious but stable condition Monday following a shooting Sunday inside a Food 4 Less grocery store in that city in which police exchanged gunfire with a 21-year-old Calumet City woman who later died from her injuries.
State police are investigating the shooting that happened at about noon in the store, at the northeast corner of 159th Street and Central Avenue.
The officer, whose identity has not been released, was wounded in an exchange that started a few blocks west of the store when Oak Forest officers were called to help a motorist needing assistance. The woman, Ketura Wilson, later died at a hospital.
The Cook County medical examiner’s office, following an autopsy, said Monday that Wilson died from multiple gunshot wounds and ruled her death a homicide.
