Excerpts from the ChicagoTribune.com:

A lawsuit filed by former Lincolnwood Firefighter Josh Weller alleging abusive behavior by employees of Paramedic Services of Illinois (PSI), the private company contracted by the village for firefighting services, has been dismissed after the two sides reached a confidential settlement.

The lawsuit was filed against PSI on Aug. 30, 2017, in U.S. District Court. Weller’s suit later added his former chief, deputy chief, and battalion chief as defendants alleging that he had been harassed, discriminated and retaliated against for defending a female coworker, and reporting what he called a supervisor’s drug use.
