Plaintiff:
Juan Carlos Robles
Incident date:
09/26/2009
Location:
7601 S. Kedzie Ave.
Allegations:
Robles was shot in the back by officers a number of times and later died of his injuries after police failed to get him medical attention. Robles' car, which was at the scene of the shooting, was inventoried as evidence but later destroyed by the police department. Investigators from the Independent Police Review Authority also failed to preserve, in a “timely manner,” a copy of security footage from a construction business across the street from the scene, which would have included footage from a camera aimed at where Robles was shot by the officers.
