The fatal police shooting of a 13-year-old has renewed calls for Chicago police to review their foot pursuit practices.

Newly released body camera footage shows 13-year-old Adam Toledo in the final moments of his life, running from police down a Chicago alleyway at 2:38 a.m.
An officer, sprinting after him, can be heard on his body camera video yelling, "Stop, right f***ing now." As Toledo stops and turns to the officer with his hands raised, the officer opens fire. Police said a gun was found a few feet away from the teen. An attorney for Toledo's family said he wasn't holding a gun when he was shot, but an attorney for the officer says Toledo was armed. Toledo's shooting — which occurred after a police foot chase, a practice the Department of Justice says can be dangerous and lead to compromised judgment — places new scrutiny on the department's history of using force after chasing suspects.More Related News
