The family of a man shot to death last month by Chicago police viewed video of the shooting that was provided Tuesday by the city's Civilian Office of Police Accountability.

Attorney Todd Pugh said the video of the fatal shooting of Anthony Alvarez in the early morning hours of March 31 has left his family with more questions than answers.

The shooting of Alvarez has garnered little attention. Two days before the case involving Alvarez, 13-year-old Adam Toledo was shot to death in the Little Village neighbourhood by a police officer during a foot chase. Police claim Alvarez, 22, brandished a gun while being chased. Authorities posted a picture on social media of the weapon they say they found at the scene."We look forward to a fair, balanced investigation by COPA and changes that Mayor Lightfoot has promised all of us," the attorney said.

Cousin Roxana Figueroa says Alverez's family want to know why he was being chased and why police gunned him down. The name of the officer who shot Alvarez hasn't been released by authorities.
