FOID card, no CHL refused to cooperate, resisted, ran and grabbed firearm. Looks like he was trying to draw it from the Holster he is wearing. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... icago.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The Civilian Office of Police Accountability on Thursday released several raw video clips in which four police officers can be seen and heard approaching Harith Augustus outside a store on the city's South Side on July 14 because they suspected he was carrying a firearm.
In footage from one of the officer's bodycams, Augustus can be seen wiggling out of the grip of a female officer and appearing to pull a gun from out of his waistband when another male officer fires a shot at him.
In the moments following the shooting, the officer appears to be shell-shocked, breathing heavily and muttering under his breath as he staggers away from the suspect as he tries to make sense of what has just happened.
