 A Mother's Day Nightmare in Princeton, Illinois. A 3-year-old boy was struck by gunfire as police burst into a barricaded room, ending a frightening hostage situation. Multiple agencies responded to the Hummingbird Mobile Home Park in Princeton, Illinois, on Sunday, May 10th at 2:42 a.m. The initial call went out as a domestic disturbance but officers discovered much worse.  42-year-old, Anthony Rodriguez, had barricaded himself in a room armed with a knife. Anthony had taken several people as hostages, including Aurora Almanza and her 3-year-old son.  Multiple agencies were on the scene, including the Bureau County Sheriff's Office, Illinois State Police and  the Princeton Police Department.  Authorities attempted to negotiate but ultimately rushed the room when they heard screaming coming from inside.  Officials have reported that officers fired shots as they entered the room.

UPDATE: AN ATTORNEY WHO ARRESTED ON POSSESSION OF NARCOTICS AND FIREARMS, PLESDS OUT TO A REDUCED SENTENCE. (PHOTO).


Update- an Olney, Illinois attorney who was arrested on possession of narcotics and firearms, pleads out to a reduced sentence.


Paul Bishop, was first arrested in May of 2023 and charged with possession of cocaine and psilocybin mushrooms. He was also charged with possession of firearms without a FOID card.


A few months later in August, Bishop was again charged with possession of drugs.


On Wednesday, February 28th, Bishop entered a guilty plea on the first set of charges and the state dropped the charges from August. 

Bishop was sentenced to 24 months probation, ordered to attend treatment for drug use, 30 hours of community service and ordered to pay $2,815.00 in fines.


The firearms will be given to a relative upon presentation of a valid FOID card.


At this point it is unclear whether he will receive any type of censure from The Illinois Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission.


 Due to the serious charges we did report when he was arrested in May of last year. We hope for the best for Mr. Bishop.
