Kim Foxx says surveillance video shows the Chicago officers lied when they initially claimed they returned fire after shots were fired at them early on the morning of July 22. The video shows the officers actually fired first, she said.
Officer Ruben Reynoso, 42, and Sgt. Christopher Liakopoulos, 43, were both charged with aggravated battery with a firearm, aggravated discharge of a firearm and official misconduct. They could face a maximum of 30 years in prison, according to State’s Attorney Kim Foxx.
"Once our officer identified himself as a police officer, they began pulling a gun and shooting at our officers, trying to kill them," Brown said at the time. Asked why he didn’t revise his statement when more evidence emerged, Brown said police officials "never make definitive statements on preliminary investigations."
He insisted he needs to remain as "impartial" as possible as that investigation proceeds, given that he will eventually have to formally respond to COPA’s disciplinary recommendations for the officers. Should a disagreement arise, a single member of the Chicago Police Board would rule on what disciplinary action should be taken.
The 17-year-old took off running, grabbing a gun from his satchel and firing at the officers. A 35-year-old man walking in the area suffered a graze wound to his leg, according to officials.
