Philip Rega’s sons have mental disabilities and are nonverbal, so he doesn’t leave them alone for very long.

Every weekday morning, Rega is by their side while they wait for a bus that takes his sons to school. On Wednesday, they were at the bus stop in front of their Back of the Yards home when three people approached and started yelling gang slogans.
