CHICAGO, IL - Two people are dead and at least 15 more were wounded as a result of weekend violence across the city, including an Englewood neighborhood man shot to death by police who believed he was armed with a gun.
Angry residents of the neighborhood threw bottles and rocks at officers in protest after 23-year-old Jamaal Moore was shot to death by an officer who believed he saw Moore reach for a gun as he fought with police, police said.
Moore, who police suspect was involved in an armed robbery of a truck driver, as well as a spate of robberies of trucks as they stopped in traffic on the South Side, was shot by police as he reached for a flashlight while fighting with the officer who was trying to arrest him.
Previously Moore was in an SUV that crashed near Ashland and 55th, while trying to outrun police, according to Fraternal Order of Police spokesman Pat Camden. Moore fought with an officer while other occupants of the vehicle fled the scene, police said.
