Video shows Chicago police fatally shoot man during gun battle following chase into Indiana

CHICAGO - Chicago's police oversight agency (COPA) has released bodycam video of the fatal shooting of a man who officers chased to northwest Indiana last month.

The backstory:

Chicago police officers responded on May 8, around 5:49 p.m., to a report of a person with a gun in the 13400 block of South Baltimore Avenue, where they located a suspect wanted in connection with an aggravated battery case.

The bodycam video—released on Tuesday—shows officers during a traffic stop in Hegewisch trying to get the suspect to exit a vehicle. When the man doesn't comply, officers then break the car's driveside window, which is when he speeds off.

The chase ended in Hammond, Indiana, where the man crashed the vehicle near Dearborn and Gostlin streets. Bodycam video shows officers running up to the man who, at that point, had gotten out of the car and was standing in a nearby field. Chicago police and COPA say the man fired shots at officers, which is when the video shows two officers opening fire on him.

WARNING: Some may find the video graphic. Viewer discretion is advised.
