MAN SHOT BY POLICE

Today, we are releasing portions of the 911 call and body-worn camera footage from the officer-involved shooting that occurred on Sunday, February 5, 2023. In compliance with the Illinois Law Enforcement Worn-Body Camera Act, the faces and identifying characteristics of the location have been blurred to protect the privacy of those involved. Please be advised that this release contains graphic content and may be difficult to watch. However, it is our commitment at the Aurora Police Department to provide transparency to our actions. We also understand there will still be questions surrounding this incident. However, it is very important to note this case is still under independent investigation by the Kane County State's Attorney and the Kane County Major Crime Task Force. Therefore, certain details of the incident must be withheld at this time. I, along with our team at the Aurora Police Department, fully recognize this is a challenging situation for our community. We hope this video will give everyone a more comprehensive understanding of what happened. ______________________________________ Any questions regarding criminal charges should be directed to the Kane County State’s Attorney’s Office.
