Nathen Jones was injured in a police chase. Jones will never again be able to walk, speak or independently function and has no hope of a medical recovery, according to a statement made by the law firm representing his family. Chicago aldermen will soon weigh whether to award a $45 million settlement to the family of a teen boy who suffered “catastrophic” injuries in a police chase car crash.
A high-speed chase ensued southbound down North Wood Street, then onto Grand Avenue going west as the Volkswagen’s driver ran stop sign after stop sign. None of the three officers riding in the unmarked police car radioed supervisors to alert them as they chased the Volkswagen at speeds approaching 70 miles per hour.
The lawsuit names police Officer Jhonathan Perez as the unmarked police car’s driver and Officers Andrew Pang and Eulalio Rodriguez as passengers. The teen’s family also sued the Volkswagen’s driver, Khalil Raggs. “Nathen Jones is now a young man who was robbed of his future,” the statement continued. “He cannot speak or communicate his feelings. He cannot dress himself and the nourishment he receives comes from liquified food inserted through a tube into his stomach. Nathen’s glazed look and distant stare of incomprehension rarely changes. He cannot walk on his own and never will.”
