In his federal complaint, Hayes is described as having "developmental disabilities" with "the cognitive level of a child" and "difficulty communicating."
Dashcam footage from another officer's car shows Hayes running in the city's Morgan Park neighborhood in the early morning of August 13, 2017.

Hayes eventually stops in front of a home and stands there as Muhammad rolls up in his unmarked personal vehicle. Second pass and the sergeant remains in the truck. But when Hayes slowly starts moving toward Muhammad, gunshots ring out.

Hayes' attorney said his client was unarmed, running and skipping around his neighborhood.
"I was horrified and shocked by this video, and I think most everybody will be," Hardy said.

Fourteen months after the shooting, Khalil Muhammad remains with CPD, suspended with pay. He's had to give up his badge and gun.

ETA Over one year for the public video release of this shooting
. Laquan McDonald video also over on year release after having to be sued for public release and then issued without audio

2. So this is an example of a good guy with a gun?

I say it's an example of a disgusting person and a disgusting situation we have nationwide with regard to how much cops can get away with.
