A man who was shot by an off-duty Chicago police officer Wednesday during an alleged robbery-in-progress has died Friday, the medical examiner says.
"I could hear her say, 'I told you I'm going to shoot you!' Something to that effect! And when I heard the shots, I was just like, 'Hey! Hit the ground and call the police again,'" the neighbor said.This surveillance video doesn't capture the moments leading up to or after the confrontation, and it's unclear at what point the shooting happened."She wasn't, like, scared or anything like that. But, she did hold her own," another neighbor said.
"The tussle that they had almost had me in tears because she's a tiny little person. So, I'm glad that she was able to keep herself together and do what she needed to do to come out alive," a fellow neighbor added. The man, identified as 39-year-old Leevon Smith, was taken to Christ Hospital in serious condition, where he died Friday, according to the medical examiner. The officer was taken to Little Company of Mary Medical Center in Evergreen Park with minor injuries, fire officials said.
Thursday, before succoming to his injuries, Smith was charged with one felony count each of aggravated battery in a public place and attempted robbery. The Civilian Office of Police Accountability is investigating the shooting and the officer involved has been placed on routine administrative leave duties for 30 days.
