EXCLUSIVE: Lawyer for Chicago cop who shot unarmed Black 13-year-old says his “poor client” thought the teen’s cellphone was a gun
last month, mistook the teen’s cellphone for a gun, according to an attorney representing the officer.
But an attorney for the family of the teen—referred to only as “AG” in a federal lawsuit against the city and the officer, whose identity The Daily Beast is reporting for the first time—say they have reviewed video evidence, and that it tells a different story. That made him the latest teenager to be shot by the notoriously troubled police force behind a wide array of high-profile shootings of young men and boys of color in recent years. And while he survived the encounter, “AG” may never walk again, according to Andrew M. Stroth, a lawyer representing the teen and his family.
In the Tactical Response Report filled out by police on the day after the incident and obtained by The Daily Beast, Ball indicated he perceived the youth’s phone as a gun. But he also indicated the shot he fired was due to “subject armed with a weapon” and was in defense of both himself and his partner.
