Body Cam Chicago police firing at Dexter Reed 96 times in 41 seconds after he shot officer

Newly released #bodycam #footage reveals the mayhem that unfolded in a residential #neighborhood when #Chicago police fired as many as 96 bullets toward a man during a traffic stop, #killing the 26-year-old and raising questions about whether #officers used excessive force.

While a preliminary investigation suggests the driver opened fire on officers first, his family and attorneys question why plain-clothed officers swarmed #Dexter Reed’s car with guns drawn and fired dozens of shots at him.

The fatal encounter happened in the city’s Garfield Park neighborhood on March 21. Several graphic bodycam videos were released Tuesday by #Chicago’s #Civilian Office of #Police Accountability #cnnnews18 #cnnnews #jamaicanews
