"as authorities investigate a deadly police shooting in peoria, we are hearing from the suspect's sister, who said while what her brother did was wrong, she does not believe his life should have been taken.
"the incident involving Matthew Cardon happened on the evening of june 5, when police in peoria received a call of a man who was allegedly trying to kidnap a woman who was pushing a baby stroller with a child inside. officers contacted the suspect, some sort of altercation took place and an officer-involved shooting occurred," peoria police sgt. Araceli Montes said.
"April Cardon said her 43-year-old brother battled mental health and addiction issues, but said he 'really wanted to be well.
"'I feel very strongly that police - I know they have a really hard job, but I feel that they need to be better trained to deal with people who have a mental illness,' said April. 'I feel that this situation should have been de-escalated. There was no reason for someone to die.
