Latest: Man killed by Chicago police grew up in foster care
The 19-year-old man fatally shot by Chicago police last weekend spent most of his life in foster care, and his longtime foster mother says she never saw him be violent.
According to the newspaper, state records show the Illinois Department of Family Services took custody of LeGrier when he was 5 because of allegations of abuse by his mother.
A statement from Mayor Rahm Emanuel's office said Emanuel and Interim Police Superintendent John Escalante will have a news conference at 2 p.m. Wednesday to announce "a major overhaul" of the policy regarding how officers respond to incidents and the use of force.
