Tim Jones grew up in Markham watching his father put on a police uniform and leave the house every day to serve his community. It was his dream to become a police officer, just like his dad, a friend said.

Thurman Reynolds wasn’t close with his parents. He had a temper and trouble holding on to jobs, his girlfriend said.

On Saturday, the two men came face-to-face. Jones, the 24-year-old son of the Country Club Hills police chief, was critically injured, and Reynolds, 21, was killed, in a shootout after Park Forest police responded to a 5:40 a.m. call about a break-in at a vacant house in the 300 block of Neola Street, reports said…Please click here to read Nick Swedberg and Zak Koeske’s story in the Tribune/Daily Southtown.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Tim Jones, his family and the Village of Park Forest.
