The family of an Elk Grove Village man who was shot and killed by police last year is expected to file a civil lawsuit Thursday.
The lawsuit stems from a shooting that occurred on Dec. 1, 2023. Elk Grove Village police said officers responded to the 200 block of Fern Drive after 24-year-old Jack Murray told a 911 dispatcher that someone at the residence had a knife and that this person was "going to hurt someone." When the dispatcher asked if that person was him, he mumbled inaudible.The call ended, and the dispatcher called back.
One officer directed others to prepare several nonlethal means — including stun guns, a beanbag rifle and a shield — along with at least one pistol.Murray was then seen limping down the block and raising a knife in the air. The officers responded by deploying stun guns, though he continued toward them. About nine seconds later, at least five shots from two different guns can be heard as Murray drops to the ground and officers back away before handcuffing him and rendering medical assistance.
