CAROL STREAM, Ill. (CBS) — After days of outrage, the family of a man shot and killed by police in west suburban Carol Stream have now seen body camera footage from that shooting.
Attorneys for the family of Isaac Goodlow III, 30, said he was unarmed when he was shot by two officers in his home early on Saturday, Feb. 3.
Carol Stream police have said officers responded to a reported domestic violence incident at the Villagebrook Apartments at 260 E. St. Charles Road around 4:15 a.m. Saturday, when two officers shot Goodlow.
“Officers encountered a tense, uncertain, and rapidly evolving situation, which resulted in officers discharging their weapons at the alleged domestic violence suspect,” said Carol Stream Police Chief Brian Cluever.
Goodlow was shot multiple times, and was taken to Northwestern Medicine Central DuPage Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Police have not said exactly what type of threat prompted the officers to shoot Goodlow, but Stroth and Goodlow’s family said the shooting was not justified.
