City officials decided not to dismiss the Chicago police officer who shoved a woman after she called 911 for help following an assault by her boyfriend. The decision, made on October 22, 2026, went against a recommendation from the Civilian Office of Police Accountability to fire the officer.
The officer, who has served with the department for six years, was the focus of the COPA recommendation. The former police superintendent Larry Snelling was mentioned in connection with the case.
