Berwyn police returned fire and fatally shot the suspect.

No officers were injured in the incident.

It was late, but one woman who heard about the violent interaction was visibly unsettled.

“When I hear it, the voice of the police says, ‘Don’t move. Stay there.’ “I ran to the front of my room and saw police officers with the gun, I hid,” she said.

Berwyn police said the man was wanted for a triple murder that occurred the same day in Mahomet, Illinois, just outside Champaign.

The Cook County coroner’s office identified him as John R. Lyons.

Mahomet police said they were called to a home in the 1100 block of Riverside Drive just after 9:40 p.m. for a report of a triple shooting.

When police arrived, they found three people with life-threatening gunshot wounds.

One person died at the scene of the accident, the other two were taken to a nearby hospital, but both also died.

Mahomet police identified those killed as Janis, Sara and Caleb Mason.

The Illinois State Police Public Integrity Task Force is investigating.

Police said there was no threat to the community.
