CHICAGO — On the first anniversary of the fatal shooting of teenager Adam Toledo by a Chicago police officer during a foot chase, his family went to the church where his funeral Mass was held and then visited his grave.

At the Mass at St. Mary Star of the Sea, Adam’s name and memory were mentioned, said Lucy Garcia, his aunt.

“We went to the Mass and then we gathered as a family, ate together, went to the cemetery with all our little ones,” Garcia said. “We took balloons, flowers.”
