A 55-year-old mother ,Betty Jones,of five was accidentally shot and killed by police last month. The officer was standing in the parkway outside the woman's home, according to a lawsuit filed Monday on behalf of the woman's family. Police  released a few details about the shooting, which also killed 19-year-old Quintonio LeGrier, but it appears that Jones was an innocent bystander.The shooting happened at about 4:30 a.m. on the 4700 block of West Erie St.. Officers were confronted by a combative subject resulting in the discharging of the officer’s weapon, fatally wounding two individuals, Jones and LeGrier. 
 Quintonio LeGrier was a college student who studied engineering at Northern Illinois University and was home for Christmas break. LeGriers' mother informed the Chicago Police Department that her son suffered from "mental issues". Someone that morning thought that LeGrier was threatening their life but others say you can tell he had a problem. To the family of Quintonio  LeGrier and Betty Jones I want to say I am sorry for the lost of your loved ones, I truly am.
