BREAKING NEWS: A family is suing after Will County Sheriff's deputies shot and killed a young man and his grandfather last fall, amid a domestic dispute just hours after the young man's release from a psychiatric hospital. davesavinicbs2 SAssadNews

Paramedic reports obtained by the family, and reviewed by CBS 2, detail a chaotic scene in the aftermath of the shooting. One report said when paramedics arrived, officers found Jabbar and Eldred"laying on the ground in a pool of blood, with two officers doing compressions on both patients."

But there was something else in the reports the family didn't know until they got the patient care report for Eldred around a month after the incident. While paramedics reviewed Eldred's body, they noticed a gunshot wound to his back and to his left hand – information the Will-Grundy County Task Force, the agency investigating the incident, never disclosed in any of their public statements about the incident.

Rhonda Wells, Jabbar's mother and Eldred's daughter, said she and her family fought for months to see the video and other public documents to know the truth about what happened. But they faced repeated roadblocks from the agencies investigating the incident, including the Will-Grundy Major Crimes Task Force. That's when the family came to CBS 2.
