Video shows the moments that a security guard's shot rang out at a nightclub in Chicago's Little Village neighborhood over the weekend. A 21-year-old woman was killed in the incident at the Stone Park, Illinois nightclub early Saturday morning.
Stone Park Police say that, in the last year, they've responded to roughly three calls per week at the nightclub, with calls ranging from ambulance assists to unwanted subjects and other disturbances. The Illinois State Attorney's Office says the investigation is ongoing.
The nightclub was closed overnight Saturday into Sunday, and an event was postponed. Nightclub officials said they want to allow space for healing. However, a petition has been created to shut the nightclub down. As of Monday afternoon, it had garnered roughly 1,000 signatures.
Police say the security guard was taken into custody a few hours after the shooting and then released, after the Cook County State Attorney's Office reviewed the evidence in this case.
The young woman's family says they're shocked to hear that, as of right now, no one is being held responsible for her death.
CBS Chicago reached out to the nightclub for more information on the security guard, and have not heard back.
Timeline of events at Stone Park nightclub
Stone Park police confirmed a fight broke out inside the Mansion Nightclub, at 3801 W. Lake St, just before 1:40 a.m. Police said a security guard pulled out a gun and fired once, hitting and killing Pacheco.
Pacheco's boyfriend said he was at the Mansion Nightclub with her Friday night into early Saturday morning, and they both saw a fight break out inside the club when a single shot hit and killed Pacheco.
Pacheco was the oldest of five kids. Her family said she was always helping her mom, who is now dealing with the unimaginable loss of her daughter.
CBS News Chicago spoke with the family inside their home in Chicago's Little Village neighborhood, where dozens of family members gathered to grieve together.
A memorial for Pacheco was placed in the center of them all.
Pacheco's family said video from Facebook showed the moment when a man in a black shirt and pants fired a shot during a fight. The family said the shot hit Pacheco in the chest.
Pacheco's boyfriend of five years, Joel Chimborazo, said he and Pacheco were dancing when she was shot.
"When I tried lifting up her body, it felt heavier than usual. And then I saw like blood leaking," he said.
Pacheco's family said they are preparing to say goodbye to her one last time. They are also asking for donations to help her mother pay for her funeral.
"At this time, she needs all the support she can get from everybody," said Uriza.

Road rule warning to Aussies after driver cops $1,775 fine, 22 demerit points in one go

Drivers are being reminded of their responsibility to follow the myriad rules of the road after one L-plater copped $1,775 in fines and a whopping 22 demerit points in one hit this past weekend. NSW Traffic and Highway Patrol are holding the driver of a silver Saab convertible up as an example of what not to do after the male, who held a NSW Learner's class C licence, was caught doing 129km/h on the Hume Highway on Sunday. It was the car's speed in the 110km/h zone near Penrose which initially alerted officers in Mittagong Highway Patrol to the driver's wrongdoing, but the offences didn't stop there. The learner licence holder, who was not displaying yellow L plates on the front or the rear of the car, can only do a maximum speed of 90km/h, making his speed actually 39km over the limit. After being stopped at 4.15 pm, officers then spotted a mobile phone positioned near the steering wheel playing a music video on YouTube. "When questioned about this, the male swiped the screen to a map app and replied 'no, I'm not using it, just looking at the map'," officers said of the interaction. It is illegal for learner and provisional licence holders in NSW to use a phone for "any purpose", even for directions. 😳 Alarming breach of well-known road rule as 8,500 Aussies cop $395 fine 🐉 New Aussie road markings aimed at giving drivers a 'sense of warning' 🛴 Aussies warned over $1,161 fine after parents' shocking e-scooter act on city road When police questioned the female passenger about her role as a supervisor, she replied, "I was asleep," officers said. The offences resulted in numerous fines and demerit points. They included: Exceeding speed over 30km/h, $1045 fine and five demerit points Learner using a mobile phone, $410 fine and five demerit points Not displaying L plates, $320 fine and two demerit points. Because it was a long weekend and double demerit points were in place, the male driver accumulated a whopping 22 demerit points. Because learner drivers can only accumulate a maximum of four demerit points, he was automatically suspended from driving with a pending extension from NSW Transport. The female passenger also copped a penalty infringement for failing to supervise. Do you have a story tip?

Video shows Huthi fighters' drill, not ambush on Pakistan army

"Chanting Allahu Akbar, BLA (Baloch Liberation Army) blew up the Pakistani army convoy," reads in parts the Hindi-language Facebook post shared on May 27, 2025. The video shows a column of vehicles moving through a desert region when one of them suddenly explodes. The footage spread with similar claims on Facebook and X after gunmen killed 26 people in an attack on tourists in Pahalgam in India-administered Kashmir on April 22, which New Delhi blames on its neighbour. Islamabad denies the charge (archived link). Four days of tense fighting broke out between the nuclear-armed foes in May -- claiming over 70 lives on both sides -- before they agreed to a US-brokered ceasefire (archived link). The BLA is one of several separatist groups that accuse outsiders of plundering the Balochistan province's natural resources, and has been blamed for attacks in Pakistan. Fighters from the group attacked a train with 450 passengers on board in March, sparking a two-day siege during which dozens of people were killed (archived link). In another attack, BLA rebels targeted a security vehicle with an improvised explosive device, killing seven Pakistani soldiers on May 6 (archived link). Some users have linked the false video to "Operation Sindoor" -- India's name for its strikes on Pakistan. "Balochistan too is probably running Operation Sindoor in Pakistan," one user commented. Another wrote, "Indian people don't worry, we will continue operation Sindoor until we get our freedom." But the original video actually shows an exercise by Huthi rebels in March 2024 in Yemen. A Google reverse image search on keyframes from the false video led to a longer version that Saudi-owned TV station Al Arabiya uploaded on its YouTube channel on March 10, 2024 (archived link). The video is captioned: "Watch: Huthi group conducts military manoeuvres simulating the storming of Israeli sites and targeting American and British forces". An Arabic logo appearing at the bottom right corner of the YouTube video led to longer footage posted on Yemeni Military Media's X account on the same day (archived link). Visuals at the 32:11 mark of the X post correspond with the clip shared in the false posts. The X post also contains a link to a report that Yemeni Military Media -- an outlet affiliated with the Huthi movement -- uploaded on its website, which shares the same video (archived link). AFP has debunked other misinformation stemming from the India-Pakistan conflict here.

MPD: False carjacking report leads to two arrests

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A driver who claimed he was carjacked early Saturday morning was charged with making a false report after police determined he made up the story. Edwin Blandon Moren, 45, allegedly told officers that two men in a white sedan pulled him out of his Ford F-150 at Macon and Highland and drove off in the vehicle. He said they also took his cell phone, cash, and credit cards. Where did 100,000 registered vehicles go in Shelby County? The Ford pickup was spotted a couple of hours later in a parking lot on Summer Avenue, and police arrested a woman who jumped out of the vehicle and tried to run away. Investigators said Moreno later admitted he had picked up a woman on Summer and went to a motel with her. He said that while he was in the shower, she took his wallet and drove off in his truck. Adrienne Campbell, 26, was charged with theft of property and evading arrest and is being held on a $25,000 bond. Court records show Campbell was arrested twice in 2024 for similar crimes. MPD: Home burglarized while suspects were live on Facebook In one case, she was accused of stealing a car from a female friend, and in another case, from a man who had given her a ride. Moreno is being held on a $2,5000 bond. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
