In Chicago, the family of Dexter Reed is calling for charges against the police officers who shot and killed Reed after a traffic stop last month. Newly released bodycam video shows plainclothes Chicago police officers fired nearly 100 shots in just 41 seconds. It remains unclear why officers assigned to a tactical unit pulled over Reed, who is Black, or why they approached his car with guns drawn. Police initially said Reed was pulled over for a seatbelt violation, but Reed was driving in a car with tinted windows. Police claim the shootout began after Reed fired the first shot.
