CALUMET CITY, Ill. - Three men from the Chicago area were indicted on federal firearm violations after a shootout erupted between them in a suburban store parking lot, officials said.
On August 9, 2021, the indictment states gunfire erupted between 24-year-old Anthony Hayes and 23-year-old Jamari Williams, and 40-year-old Reginald Daniels.
The indictment accuses Hayes and Williams of each firing multiple rounds at Daniels in the store parking lot in Calumet City, wounding Daniels and another person that Daniels was with.
Daniels then pulled a gun from his waistband and fired multiple rounds at Hayes and Williams as they fled the scene, according to the indictment. One of Daniels’ shots struck an innocent bystander who was driving near the store.
