Officers Opening Fire on a Carjacking Suspect After He Shot into a Police Car
Chicago, IL For the second time in less than two weeks, the city moved quickly Wednesday to release video footage of a police-involved shooting — this time of officers opening fire on a carjacking suspect after he shot into a police cruiser. Unlike the videos released Friday of the fatal shooting of an unarmed 18-year-old suspect that highlighted potential training deficiencies, the footage of the shooting Tuesday night in the Roseland neighborhood spotlighted the dangers police face, Superintendent Eddie Johnson told reporters Wednesday at police headquarters. "These police officers face this kind of thing every single day," Johnson said. "Law enforcement all over the country right now is being scrutinized for everything that they do. But yet, these officers didn't go away from this. They ran to it." Audio and video from dashboard cameras captured the dramatic pursuit Tuesday night of the vehicle that police said had been stolen earlier in the day. The chase escalated after the suspect extended an arm out the driver's window. Shots could then be heard, and a flash of light appeared. Moments later, another shot fired by the suspect struck the police vehicle. An officer suffered a graze wound to the head, police said. |

They did show tremendous restraint. I wish they could control their voices though, they always sound like they have lost their minds. Not as calm as you would want them to be, even under the circumstances. What it translates to is rage. Cops should be able to do their job without rage. Scary.
