CHICAGO — The Chicago police officer who fatally shot 13-year-old Adam Toledo in Little Village last year will not face criminal charges, Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx announced at a news conference Tuesday.
The officer who killed 22-year-old Anthony Alvarez in a shooting on the Northwest Side just days later also will not be charged, Foxx said.
Nearly a year after the shootings, prosecutors concluded that they could not meet the necessary burden of proof to bring charges, Foxx said during what she called a “somber announcement.”
