CHICAGO – The mayor and city leaders appealed for calm Thursday and the city released of body-camera videos of last month's fatal shooting of Adam Toledo, 13, by a Chicago police officer – an incident that appears to show the boy unarmed as he attempts to surrender with his hands up.

According to one officer's body-cam video, the officer pulls up in a car, gets out, pushes past another man and runs down an alley shouting "stop" toward Adam, who is dressed in jeans, a sweatshirt and white baseball cap.

As Adam slows down and pauses near a fence, the officer shouts, "Show me your f***ing hands." Adam turns toward the officer and appears to put his hands up. He does not appear to have a gun in his hand. That's when the officer shoots – less than 20 seconds after getting out of his car.

The city's Civilian Office of Police Accountability released 17 body-cam videos, 4 third-party videos, a transmission from the Office of Emergency Management and Communications, two audio recordings of 911 calls, six ShotSpotter recordings, as well as response and arrest reports.

This is horrible! Probably the worst one of these we have seen in the last few years.

Although this happens on average 5 times a night in Chicago between residents (not cops), Chicago is going to riot, loot, and burn.

1. "Appears" he doesnt have a gun.

Im guessing that means he did have one


2. Why is he running?

Took two posts but I think we found the TD company line to avoid simply calling it what it is - this is a bad shoot.

"Are you alright"

The cop saying that makes me wish he had a bullet in him.

there was a gun found on the scene but i believe he dropped it. you can clearly see he didn’t have anything in his hands when he put his arms up and got lit up

How would this have helped in an officer involved shooting of an unarmed person?

At least he asked the kid if he was OK.

is the kid black? 'cause that's going to be the factor if they riot or not

It wouldn't have. And trying to use a kid being murdered to further your political agenda is fricked up.

Ouch, that is bad. Cop needs to go down.

7 years later, this is is where, Hands up, Don't Shoot, finally applies.
