A man was fatally shot about midnight on the West Side, police said.

A man, a woman and a teenage boy were found dead inside a Wilmette home Monday, the victims of an apparent murder-suicide -- and records show that the man was convicted more than 20 years ago of fatally stabbing his previous wife.

Police found the three bodies inside a home in the 800 block of Greenleaf Avenue after they were called to the address for a well-being check, according to Wilmette police. The preliminary investigation indicates that the man shot the two others, then turned the gun on himself, police said.

Police are investigating a suspicious home fire that raged Saturday night on property involved in a bitter family battle, the Daily Herald reports.

The fire began about 7 p.m. and destroyed an unoccupied home in the Fritzsche Industrial Park at 410 Amanda Ave., Lakemoor Police Chief Wally Fraiser said.

The house -- one of two residences in the industrial park -- was being rented, Fraiser said. There were no injuries.

The cause of the fire remained unknown, Frasier said, but it is being treated as an arson.

Richard Wiley, 54, the man who police believe killed his wife and teenage stepson in their Wilmette home today, was convicted of the 1985 stabbing death of his then-wife, records show.

Two Europeans attending a 2007 wedding reception at a downtown club filed a lawsuit Monday alleging they were attacked by guests who thought they were wedding crashers, WBBM reports.
