CHICAGO: Hundreds marched through the streets of Chicago on Friday to protest the police shooting of Adam Toledo, a day after the city released a graphic video of a police officer shooting and killing the 13-year-old Latino boy in an alley two weeks ago.

The nine-minute video, recorded by Eric Stillman’s body camera, shows showed the 34-year-old officer chasing and shooting Toledo on March 29 at 2.30am in Little Village, a working-class neighbourhood on the city’s West Side with a large population of Mexican Americans. In the latest police-involved shootings of people of colour, an officer in a Minneapolis suburb shot and killed a black man during a traffic stop, and now faces a second-degree manslaughter charge.
