According to authorites the Cook County sheriff's office says officers responded at a little after 4 a.m. Sunday to a call of shots fired at Manny's Blue Room Nightclub in Robbins. 4 people were shot on the scene when they arrived. The Sheriff's spokeswoman Sophia Ansari says an officer from nearby Midlothian shot a man later identified as 26-year-old Jemel Roberson. Roberson was a security guard at the club and well known to police officers in the area.
According to witness Adam Harris, "The security guard that got killed, he caught somebody and had his knee on him the whole time. "Just waiting on the police to get there. I guess when the police got there, they probably thought he was one of the bad guys, cause he had his gun on the guy and they shot him." No information has been provided about the officer that shot Roberson. More details to come as the story unfolds...
