Police say the officer-involved shooting happened around 10:30 p.m. after officers responded to a call for service in the 1900 block of North Austin Avenue. They dispersed a large group of people when they arrived, according to police, and one male offender fled in the opposite direction.
As officers pursued him, police say, he turned on them while having a gun in hand. One officer discharged their weapon, hitting the offender in the legs and hand. He was taken to an area hospital in fair condition, and police say a weapon was recovered at the scene.
An officer was taken to an area hospital for observation, according to police.
The specifics of the incident, including the comprehensive use-of-force investigation, are being investigated by the Civilian Office of Police Accountability (COPA) with the full cooperation of the Chicago Police Department.
The officer(s) involved will be placed on routine administrative duties for a minimum period of 30 days, according to police.
