Video shows off-duty Chicago cop in deadly shooting of assailant: 'I told you I'd shoot you'
Leevon Smith died in a hospital two days after the shooting
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Chicago's Civilian Office of Police Accountability (COPA) released multiple third-party videos Thursday of a fatal encounter between an off-duty city police officer and an unarmed alleged robber, along with audio recordings of 911 calls from the incident.
The incident took place Jan. 18 when a female police officer walked out of a building to break up what appeared to be an argument involving four people.
The fight between the four men took place in the 1300 block of West 90th Street.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The four individuals can be heard in the video arguing as they shouted over one another. The officer tried to intervene. At one point, the officer tries to tell them that it was "OK" and to "calm down." Three of them walked away, but Leevon M. Smith, 39, stayed behind.

The two were speaking, and as the officer turned to walk away, Smith allegedly grabbed her from behind and grabbed her gun to try and disarm her.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"I'll kill you, I'll kill you," the officer warned Smith. She was trying to wrestle herself free from Smith's grip, and they both fell to the ground. As they struggled over the weapon, she fired her first shot at Smith.
Smith could be heard saying, "I'm sorry," before she fired her second shot. "Oh, s---, you got me, you got me."
The officer yelled, "I told your dumb--- I'd kill you."

"Damn, baby, I'm sorry. OK, OK, OK!" Smith replied.

Other voices can be heard arguing with the male.
Witnesses called 911.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"There's a lady outside with a gun, and she shot somebody, y'all," one woman said.
The officer called 911 and told a dispatcher she had shot someone and was off duty.
"He tried to rob me," she told the operator.

Moments later in one of the videos, first responders showed up and asked the off-duty officer where she had shot Smith. She told them she didn't know.

According to FOX 32, the complaint alleged the officer used "excessive and violent physical force" and "knew or should have known that such force was not necessary in the light of the circumstances."
The lawsuit claimed Smith's "estate was diminished by virtue of the medical and funeral expenses that were incurred," adding that his family "suffered injuries as a result of his death, including, but not limited to, the loss of companionship and society, grief, sorrow and mental anguish."
The officer was placed on routine administrative duties for 30 days.
