How they died
Deadly force
Police shot and killed Angel Perez Jr. after he allegedly shot at officers who had surrounded him after a robbery at a McDonald's. Witnesses said Perez entered the restaurant, where he'd been employed, put a gun to the head of a cashier, got money from the safe, and then left on foot. Officers found Perez in a parking lot a few blocks from the restaurant at 12:25 a.m. Lake County State's Attorney Michael Waller called the shooting "legally justified."
