As one officer patted down Brien, police said Frank lunged at the officer. Then, as police were cuffing Frank, they said Brian began yelling obscenities at the officer and kicked an officer in his groin. 

Police were then contacted by Oak Park Hospital, which said two stabbing victims were in the hospital. One victim said he was hit in the head by someone in the McDonald's drive-thru but did not see who it was.
