A Chicago man was shot and killed
Saturday afternoon while shielding
his mother from bullets, according to
family members. Dietra Luckett said
that her nephew, James Jones, ‘took
his body and put it on top of his
mother’s body. He covered her body.’
A Chicago Police department
spokesman would not comment on
Luckett’s story or identify the victims
but confirmed that a 21-year-old
man was killed and a woman was
critically injured.
The man was pronounced dead on
the scene, he said. Police are still
investigating the shooting, but said it
was gang-related.
Luckett said that her sister, Alicia
Jones, had not yet been told of her
son’s death. Luckett said that two of
Jones’ four children had been killed
in earlier violence.
