Police chase ends in disabled man's death in Illinois
A pickup of events near Bloomington Illinois ended with 27 year old Shane Smith killed by gunfire after a police chase started when he drove off from a Chenoa gas station without paying for $15.05 in gas. Officer Jeffrey Gabor is charged with first degree murder and held on $500000 bond. Prosecutors say the use of force was not justified. Witnesses said officers fired at the tires and Smith died from five gunshot wounds to the back. The case raises questions about use of force rules and policing in small towns.
