Police bodycam video released Friday shows an officer getting shot in the shoulder after confronting a man suspected of having just seriously wounded a security guard at a Brighton Park Home Depot last month. Minutes later, another officer is seen lying in wait in a backyard as gunfire is heard. Climbing on top of a folding chair, the officer reaches over a white fence and shoots the suspect. The suspect later died. The cop was released from the hospital later that night, but the guard, in his 50s, suffered a serious wound to the head. The officer was the fourth Chicago cop to be shot in two weeks. The videos were released by the Civilian Office of Police Accountability, which reviews all police shootings. They capture the frantic moments after the suspect, 18-year-old Travon Chadwell, was confronted by a guard at a Home Depot store in the 2400 block of West 46th Street around 4 p.m. on March 25.
