RIP Marcellis Stinnette
. From a local Chicago NBC affiliate “A pair of families are demanding answers after a teen was killed and a 19-year-old woman was seriously hurt after they were shot by a police officer late Tuesday night.
Waukegan police say the shooting happened just before midnight Tuesday near the intersection of Liberty Street and Oak Street.
Authorities say a vehicle occupied by two people, later identified as Tafara Williams and Marcellis Stinnette, fled the area after an officer approached the vehicle.
Moments later, police say another officer spotted the car near Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue and South Avenue. When that officer got out of his car, police say the vehicle began to reverse. The officer then fired his weapon, striking both Williams and Stinnette. “
