Subir Dhingra was working out at Five Points Washington a week ago when his mother called and told him something was wrong.
She had not heard from Subir’s father, Anil, who usually called home about 8 p.m. when he was closing the family’s gas station on Peoria’s East Bluff.
“She called me at 9 p.m., and we were there (at the gas station) by about 9:20,” Subir Dhingra said. “When we turned left onto Prospect and saw the police lights and the road closed off, that’s when I knew.”
Dhingra would soon find out his father, Anil, 58, died after being shot several times as he worked behind the counter at Gas USA, 2506 N. Prospect Road.
