Williams, aged 65, was shot and killed while trying to prevent his vehicle from being carjacked in broad daylight outside a Let’s Get Poppin’ popcorn store in Chicago on December 3. Williams was shot in the abdomen while trying to fend off the suspects, at least one of whom was armed. At some point during the incident he pulled his own gun but was shot in the abdomen, and the wound proved fatal.
WGN9 notes ret. firefighter Williams “was a highly decorated 65-year-old fire lieutenant who retired just two years ago.”
