Police were chasing an Audi they suspected was stolen when the Audi crashed into 61-year-old Vincent Tucker's car. Tucker claimed police violated CPD policy during the chase.
Chicago taxpayers will soon be paying $750,000 to settle a lawsuit filed by a 61-year-old man who was seriously injured in a crash in 2018, after he accused police officers of violating policy by chasing the car that slammed into him.
At a City Council Finance Committee meeting on Monday, city attorneys told aldermen that Officer Carlos Yanez Jr. and Officer Julian Rodriguez had stopped the Audi a short time earlier because it had an invalid South Carolina license plate. Immediately before the crash that injured Tucker, a supervisor asked Yanez and Rodriguez why they were chasing the car. Rodriguez was later heard telling supervisors the chase was for a traffic offense, but did not mention drugs.
