WMBD/WYZZ TV – PEORIA -- The family and former girlfriend of a man, killed by police, are suing two Peoria Police Officers and the city in a wrongful death lawsuit. The James Lee Estate and Jessica Flowers say lee was killed about a year ago by police trying to break up a domestic dispute. The plaintiffs argue Lee answered the door for the police, didn't see anyone and then shut the door. That's when, lawyers say, officers shot Lee through the door. Meanwhile police say Lee pointed a gun at them. Officers John Peterson and Robert McMillen and the City of Peoria are named in the lawsuit for 8 different counts from assault and battery to wrongful death. Peoria's Police Chief Steven Settingsgaard says his department and the State's Attorneys Office had reviewed the case, and says officers acted lawfully and justifiably. Flowers and Lee's Estate are suing for $100,000. [MORE] and [MORE]
