Report: Cops Moved Slowly Due to Fear Dying Man May Be Armed
U.S. News & World Report
Suburban Chicago police did not immediately provide medical aide to a mortally wounded man an officer had just shot because they feared that he or his girlfriend could have a gun, according to police reports released this week.
The police reports of the Oct. 20 shooting were released to the Lake County News-Sun in response to a Freedom of Information Act request. Last week, the mother of Marcellis Stinnette filed a lawsuit accusing Waukegan Police officers of letting her son bleed to death in the eight minutes it took for an ambulance to arrive.
