1 dead in Robbins shooting, no suspects in custody

Robbins police are investigating the shooting death early Friday of a man on the 3700 block of of Maxey Court, a spokesperson for the village said. Officers responded to a call of shots fired at about 4 a.m. and the unnamed victim, who police believe to be in his 20s, was pronounced dead at the scene. Robbins spokesperson Sean Howard said the body was to be taken into the Cook County medical examiner's office for examination Friday. No suspects were in custody as of Friday afternoon, Howard said. 'We're talking to neighbors, looking at Ring (home security) camera footage to get every bit of information we can, but there has been no break in the investigation,' Howard said Friday. Howard said based on preliminary information, police believe the man was shot intentionally after leaving his home on Maxey Court.

Storm damage disrupts non-emergency dispatch calls in south Chicago suburbs

Damage from storms this week disrupted the non-emergency dispatch line and some other services in four south Chicago suburbs, but 911 emergency services were unaffected. Spokesman Sean Howard said the non-emergency line and medical and fire alarm signals have been disrupted at the SouthCom Emergency Dispatch Center. The south suburbs of Matteson, Olympia Fields, Park Forest, and Richton Park were affected. But all 911 emergency services remain fully operational, and Howard wrote that there is no risk to public safety. Anyone experiencing an emergency should call 911. Emergency crews were working late Wednesday to restore all communication services. An update will be provided Thursday morning.
