An Illinois State Trooper suffered a brain bleed and fractures to his face and skull when he was shot several times last week by a Chicago man during a traffic stop in Springfield, the department announced Tuesday.
Trooper Dakotah Chapman-Green stopped Cristobal Santana, who state police have said is a suspect in a “recent” homicide in Chicago, about 10:45 p.m. Oct. 24. in a residential parking lot in south Springfield, according to state police and video the department released Tuesday.
