Barrington Hills officials may seek reimbursement from a property owner, an online home rental service and others for police costs related to a fatal shooting last month during a house party they say violated village code.
Police spokesman William Walsh said no new information has surfaced regarding the killing of Sean B. Patton, 28, of Chicago, during the March 7 party on the 300 block of Old Sutton Road.
Walsh said three other men suffered gunshot wounds, but their injuries were not life-threatening.
Officials said the home was advertised for rent on multiple online marketplaces before the shooting.
Barrington Hills zoning regulations don’t allow for the use of a residential property for commercial purposes, such as short-term rentals for lodging and special events. That’s why the reimbursement of the police expenses should be sought, said Trustee Brian Cecola, who chairs the village board’s public safety committee.

One man shot dead.
Three men wounded by gunfire.
Presumably dozens of iPhones snapping party pics for hour.
Videos of the party must have been seen hundreds/thousands of times.
Yet 5+ weeks later no suspects arrested. Somethings really wrong with this picture…
