AURORA, Ill. â A suburban Chicago man and a juvenile have been charged in connection with a violent carjacking that left a mother of two paralyzed, Aurora authorities announced Thursday.
Kimberly Weibring was eating in her car parked outside a fast-food restaurant on Jan. 16 when at least two people attempted to carjack her SUV. The pair pulled Weibring out of her vehicle, shot her in the back and drove away in her vehicle. She was left lying in the parking lot with a shattered vertebra and a bullet lodged in her spinal cord, officials said.
âThis mother, who was minding her own business inside her car, represents all of us who move through the world each day without harming anyone and in a momentâs notice became a victim of a violent crime,â Aurora Police Chief Kristen Ziman.
For the second time in less than two weeks, metro area prosecutors have signed off on an officer-involved shooting in which the officer thought the suspect had a gun but didn t.
In the first case, 18th Judicial District DA John Kellner s office declined to prosecute a Castle Rock police officer for the December 2020 wounding of James Woodall; the officer reportedly thought Woodall had taken a shot at him. Actually, Woodall was holding a knife and wasn t close enough to anyone to be an immediate threat; the blast came from a less-than-lethal shotgun fired by one of the officer s colleagues.
And now, the 17th Judicial District DA s office has dismissed the January killing of 41-year-old Harmony Wolfgram with a decision letter that does its best to disguise the fact that the item in her hand was not a gun, but a butane lighter.
The state of Illinois reported that 30% of its adult population has been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 on a day when mask guidelines received a major update.
The Illinois Department of Public Health reported that 3,835,491 people â 30.10% of the adult population â had received full inoculation against the virus with two shots of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines or one shot of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
The news is another sign of Illinois return to normality, coupled with new CDC recommendations on mask usage in outdoor settings. The agency said Tuesday that vaccinated people didn t need to wear masks outdoors if they were exercising, dining at a restaurant or attending small gatherings with family and friends, regardless of whether or not the people there were vaccinated. Masks are still recommended for large gatherings and indoor functions.

MADISON, Wis. (CN) A lawsuit from a Wisconsin woman wrongfully convicted of arson was dealt a blow from a federal judge on Monday, who found that investigators’ actions in her case did not amount to constitutional violations.
U.S. District Judge William Conley offered in his 21-page decision that even though the investigation into Brenda Jones carried out by police, including lead investigator Brent York and others, was faulty, he was bound to grant summary judgment to the defendants about a month ahead of a trial planned to commence on June 1.
