Injured vet says landlord is kicking out his family over service dog

A Chicago veteran who suffered brain injuries in Iraq says that his service dog is the reason the family’s landlord is refusing to renew their lease.
According to Fox 32 TV, ex-Marine Jon Jans believes that his family is the victim of housing discrimination.
“Disappointing. Disgusting. I don’t know the right word,” Jans said of his landlord’s decision.
Jans has lived in the apartment for four years, but on Monday, the family received a letter telling them that when their lease expires in 60 days, they have to move out. No reason was given.
