CHICAGO – A gunman is dead after he was shot by an off-duty police officer who witnessed a domestic dispute before the suspect opened fire at a park in South Holland, Illinois, Saturday evening.
The shooting unfolded about 6:30 p.m. during a family reunion at Maicach Park in the Village of South Holland, a suburb of Chicago. A domestic dispute arose between a man and his current girlfriend and former girlfriend at the gathering. At one point, the couple left, but returned and the man opened fire, according to a live report by CBS News Chicago.
