Bodycam footage shows shootout that wounded three deputies
GRAPHIC CONTENT WARNING: Senior correspondent Mike Tobin reports that the suspect goes before the judge Thursday after allegedly shooting three Illinois sheriff’s deputies.
Dramatic new body camera footage from Ogle County, Illinois reveals the frightening moments three first responders were shot during a confrontation at a home in Dixon.
The 32-year-old man officials say shot at law enforcement when they entered his home is now charged with attempted first degree murder and several weapons offenses. The suspect, Jonathan Gounaris, is expected to appear in court Thursday around 3 p.m., according to his attorney.
"This is an active and ongoing investigation requiring a significant amount of time to complete. This also includes reviewing multiple body camera videos and considerable forensic evidence," said Sheriff Brian VanVickle.

The Sheriff’s Office in Ogle County, a rural community 100 miles west of Chicago, was originally called on June 12 to check on an individual who threatened suicide and homicide. The owner of the home made the 911 call, warning that her son was in possession of multiple firearms.
Hours after hostage negotiators tried to contact that person no less than 60 times over the phone, an emergency response team entered the home.

According to the sheriff, a firearms owner's identification card owned by the suspect was revoked before the incident due to a clear and present danger report.
Illinois State Police are now handling the investigation into the shooting. A review of the incident will be conducted at the conclusion of criminal proceedings against Gounaris to determine whether any agency policy violations occurred, VanVickle said.
