An Oak Forest police officer is in serious but stable condition after a shooting Sunday at a Food4Less.
Officers responded to a call for a motorist in need of assistance about 11 a.m. Sunday in the 6000 block of 159th Street when they noticed the driver was armed, according to Oak Forest police.
Officers said they tried taking the woman, 21-year-old Ketura Wilson, in for a mental health evaluation, but she started running away. When officers tried to negotiate with Wilson, she took out a gun, ran into the Food4Less grocery store at 5556 West 159th Street and started shooting at officers.
