3 seriously injured in domestic dispute in Crete – NBC Chicago

Three people were “cut and stabbed with a knife” in an apparent domestic attack Thursday night in Crete, the Will County Sheriff’s Office said.

Officers were dispatched at around 6.40pm to a house in the 2600 block of Shady Grove Court for a report of gunshots, police said.

Two residents of the home, a 66-year-old woman and a 68-year-old man, suffered multiple injuries and were taken to a nearby hospital in critical condition. Another man, 36, from Wisconsin, was also hospitalized in critical condition. All three were later transported to Chicago-area hospitals, police said.

A preliminary investigation indicates the 36-year-old, who is related by marriage to the other man and the woman, attacked the two inside the home, the sheriff’s office said.

A gun “may have been fired” inside and outside the home, but no one appears to have been shot, police said.
