The two CPD officers were shot earlier this month when they pulled over 22-year-old Eric Morgan in West Englewood, Chicago police said. Morgan's brother, 21-year-old Emonte, and a woman were in the vehicle at the time, according to CPD.

Emonte allegedly killed French and shot Yanez three times, according to police. Both brothers have been charged.

As of last week, Yanez only had use of his left eye and right arm.

Just a week before the shooting, Yanez was dancing with his wife and son at his niece's quinceanera. His family said he has a big heart, wanting to help the kids he met on the job in Englewood.

The Yanez family has set up a GoFundMe to help with his recovery.
