Dexter Reed: No Chicago officers will be charged in fatal shooting | LiveNOW from FOX

The Cook County State's Attorney said Wednesday they would not be charging any Chicago police officers involved in the fatal shooting of Dexter Reed, who was killed during a West Side traffic stop that escalated into a gunfight in 2024.

Reed, 26, was shot at least 13 times on March 21, 2024, after he fired at an officer, wounding them in the wrist, according to the Civilian Office of Police Accountability (COPA).

Four officers returned fire, shooting more than 100 rounds in just 41 seconds, striking Reed multiple times, including in the chest, back, and legs.

Reed’s death was ruled a homicide by the Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office.

The shooting, which began after police stopped Reed for an alleged seat belt violation, prompted protests and a federal lawsuit from his family, alleging excessive force and civil rights violations.

COPA’s investigation found that officers continued shooting after Reed exited his SUV and fell to the ground. Video footage of the incident was later released by the oversight agency.

In February, the City of Chicago reached a tentative $1.25 million settlement with the family of Dexter Reed.

However, in April, the city council's Finance Committee rejected the settlement by a 15-12 vote.
