On January 18, 2023, the Chicago Police Department (CPD) notified COPA of an officer-involved shooting. Based on preliminary information, the incident began when an off-duty officer approached four subjects who appeared to be in an altercation in the 1300 block of West 90th Street. Three of the subjects eventually departed and walked west bound on 90th Street. One subject remained and continued to engage with the off-duty officer. As the off-duty officer began to walk away, the subject grabbed her from behind and reached for her weapon, which resulted in a physical struggle. As both parties fell to the ground, the off-duty officer's weapon discharged, striking the subject, who later succumbed to his injuries.

Let’s talk Chicago Police’s Gun Buyback Program.....with Fingerprinting? I thought it was anonymous. Does this violate the 4th Amendment? Is it entrapment? Police are allowed to lie, see Frazier v. Cupp, 394 U.S. 731 (1969) (a United States Supreme Court case that affirmed the legality of deceptive interrogation tactics). Does this establish trust or hurt it?
