Cook County State’s Attorney Kimberly Foxx said Tuesday she would not be charging the Chicago cop who killed 13-year-old Adam Toledo last year.
concluded that Officer Eric Stillman “reasonably believed himself to be in apparent danger of losing his life or suffering great bodily injury.” Cops encountered Toledo and a friend in a Chicago alleyway at about 2:30 a.m. on March 29, 2021. The pair had been firing a gun, triggering a ShotSpotter alert. Stillman chased Toledo down the alley, yelling at him to drop the gun,.
Stillman then fired one fatal shot at Toledo at about the same time Toledo turned around, dropped the gun and raised his hands. “The timing of these actions was less than one second,” the Cook County report said. Foxx’s office said prosecutors wouldn’t be able prove that Stillman knew Toledo had dropped the gun when he fired.
