Chicago Police Officer Testifies Her Laquan McDonald Shooting Statement Was Altered By Detective

A Chicago police officer testified Wednesday that the detective in charge of investigating the police killing of Laquan McDonald altered her version of the incident in official reports to help justify the police shooting.

Officer Dora Fontaine said a report by Detective David March included a statement attributed to her that wrongly described McDonald as attacking officer Jason Van Dyke before Van Dyke opened fire.
