Plainclothes Chicago police officers fired nearly 100 gunshots over 41 seconds during a traffic stop that left one man dead and one officer injured, according to graphic video footage a police oversight agency released Tuesday.

Five officers from a tactical unit who were in an unmarked police vehicle surrounded an SUV last month driven by Dexter Reed, allegedly for failing to wear a seatbelt. Video shows the 26-year-old Black man briefly lowering a window and then raising it and refusing to exit the vehicle as more officers arrived, yelled commands and drew weapons.

    But we’re not going to fix things if we don’t look at the whole truth of a situation, and only the partial truth.

    That’s what a summary is tho … simply a portion of the whole.

    The complete story is in the article. Therefore read it first before commenting.

      I sincerely hope you are an AI or a child because you’re demonstrating an incredible lack of awareness here.

      Edit: imagine disputing this, Jesus christ you people are dumb.
