Several questions swirl the matter. But the one coming into sharper focus is what police saw just before firing those fatal shots.

The shooting happened around 10 a.m. Saturday, in the 3800 block of West Flournoy Street in the North Lawndale neighborhood.

Clay was seen leaning into the vehicle, police said. As the officers got out of their squad car, Clay put his hand in his wristband and fled on foot through a gangway, police said. But a Monday update from COPA — which has had access to body cam video — makes no mention of him turning toward the officer with a gun. Their version says Clay was in possession of a firearm which was recovered on scene.
