The shooting happened Friday after James Eric Davis Jr.’s parents picked him up from that hospital and brought him to his dorm to pack up for spring break. Davis Sr. was a part-time police officer in Bellwood, Illinois, and Yeagley said the gun used by Davis Jr. belonged to his father. At a press conference Saturday, Yeagley declined to say whether drugs were found in Davis Jr.’s system. Davis Jr. was initially taken to a hospital after his arrest early Saturday but will be moved to a jail once he’s discharged. Authorities said Davis Jr. fled after the shootings, prompting an intensive manhunt in the area.
