On August 11, 2023, the Chicago Police Department had two on-duty Chicago police officers in a marked police vehicle observe a confrontation between two individuals. The officers reportedly observed one individual with a firearm in their back pocket. When the officers engaged, the armed individual, 36-year-old Louis C. Gordan-Hay fled, and officers pursued them into a residence. Inside the residence, officers gave verbal commands to drop the weapon, as they struggled over Gordon-Hay’s firearm while Gordon-Hay said to the officers, “kill me.” Gordan-Hay and one of the officers both discharged their weapons, at which time Gordon-Hay was struck and transported to the hospital where he was later pronounced deceased. One of the officers was having a very bad moment after the shooting. A gun was recovered on scene.
