Watch As A Very Intense Video Shows Chicago Police Officers And Suspect Struggle Over Gun In A Deadly Confrontation

* (Disclaimer: This video content is intended for educational and informational purposes only) *

The reason I am a very big defender of body cameras on police officers is…bodycam’s do not lie, they do not have an “opinion” they aren’t “politically motivated”, they simply tell the truth.

That is why certain so-called “civil rights groups” want police to not have them anymore, because when a suspect claims “racism”, the body camera always tells a different story.

But even with a body camera being worn by a police officer, it is no protection against a suspect with a gun, if anything, if a police officer is shot and killed by a gun wielding suspect, all it does is identify the killer.

Or in the case of the incident below, it clearly shows the struggle with an armed suspect and when a police officer does discharge his firearm at the suspect, it is a justified shooting.

None of this had to happen and the suspect in the video clearly knew this, but he decided to fight with the police anyway, even after multiple calls by the officers to let go of his gun and surrender, he didn’t and subsequently brought about his own death.

Too many black teenagers and young adults seem to think that by having a gun on them and by using it makes them seem more powerful and invulnerable to what ultimately ends up in their own demise.

I say again, this does not have to happen. Police are trained to respond to deadly force, with deadly force and that just means more dead suspects and families being destroyed.

Also, with all of the restrictions put on police officers by their own city governments and couple that with George Soros District Attorneys ‘soft on crime policies’, why anyone would even want to be a police officer under those conditions, boggles my mind.

Here is a written description of what you will see and hear in the video below:

Chicago, Illinois — On August 11, 2023, around 5:30 p.m. two on-duty Chicago police officers in a marked police vehicle observed a confrontation between two individuals near 1100 W. 111th Street.

The officers reportedly observed 36-year-old Louis C. Gordon-Hay with a gun in his back pocket. When the officers engaged, Gordon-Hay fled, and officers pursued him into a residence. Inside the residence, officers gave verbal commands to drop the weapon, as they struggled over the Gordon-Hay’s firearm.

Gordon-Hay and one of the officers both discharged their weapons, at which time Gordon-Hay was struck and transported to the hospital where he was later pronounced deceased. A gun was recovered on scene.

After the shooting, the partner of the officer who fired the shot can be seen running out to their squad car to retrieve what appears to be a first aid kit, before going back inside the house. He later also can be heard struggling to breathe, as other officers tell him to take deep breaths, before offering to drive him to the hospital to get checked out.

No officers were wounded in the shooting, but police reports two officers suffered bruises and abrasions from the struggle, and police have said two officers were taken to the hospital for observation. Both officers involved in the shooting were placed on 30 days of administrative duty after the shooting.

*I must warn you, that the video below is very intense and graphic and it shows a suspect being shot and killed by the police and it may not be suitable for all viewers*
