CBS News deceptively cropped body camera footage that showed a 13-year-old boy holding a gun before he was fatally shot by Chicago police in March.
A law enforcement officer fatally shot Adam Toledo during an encounter in response to gunshots heard on a police scanner. Police said Toledo ignored “verbal directions, fled, used significant force, and was armed with a semiautomatic pistol,” which is why the officer fired.
Body cam footage released this week appears to show Toledo holding a weapon moments before he was shot, but CBS News posted a clip to its website and Twitter page that cropped out the footage showing the teen’s alleged firearm. --->READ MORE and WATCH BOTH VIDEOS HERE

Radio host Dana Loesch told the truth on Fox News’s “Hannity” show on Thursday night about the latest tragic police-involved shooting, so, naturally, the mob will try to cancel her. Again.
On Thursday, Chicago police released the videos of the March 29 shooting of 13-year-old Adam Toledo, who was armed with a handgun.
The cop chased Toledo down an alley at 2:38 a.m., yelling at him twice: “Police! Stop!” And then yelled, “Show me your f*cking hands!” Toledo kept running. The officer then told him twice to “drop it!” But by the second time he had to ask it was too late. Just eight-tenths of a second later the officer shot him in the chest.
It was only when the officer went to give first aid and check his wound that he realized the suspect was a younger male. He called for an ambulance, called for a medic kit, treated the wound, and began CPR. Later, he was heard sobbing over the incident. --->READ MORE HEREFollow link below to a related story:
