      A very large crowd is gathering at 71st/Chappel, where Chicago Police say they shot and killed a person this evening. It's hard to put in words how tense the scene is. Witnesses say a female officer shot the man in the back while he was running away. He was a local barber.pic.twitter.com/aaV6smY07V

      The crowd just finished chanting "Who do you serve? Who do you protect?" The crowd formed within two minutes after the shooting, witnesses say.pic.twitter.com/GEvOEZQ2St

      The man killed by police was named Tommy, but he went by "Snoop," per people at the scene. The woman pictured here, Gloria Rainge, says Snoop has been her barber for five years. She watched him get shot. "He was cool, laid back, very intelligent."pic.twitter.com/KKB4D0h6yg

      One elderly woman: "We ain't trying to hurt nobody. We just trying to live decent." Another woman: "We just want to live. Our black kids keep getting killed. We just want to live!"

      Witnesses say the female officer who fired the shots was immediately put in a squad car and taken away from the scene. By my count, there are between 80-100 officers at the scene right now. Probably as many or more protestors.pic.twitter.com/Q56GnfaJiW

      The situation just severely escalated when Chicago Police officers moved their line forward. Officers hit multiple protestors with batons, and protesters punched officers back. I haven't seen a police shooting scene this tense since Laquon McDonald.pic.twitter.com/LfEnMP0k85

      "Snoop," the barber who was killed by Chicago Police tonight, has a 5-year-old daughter. One of his customers says he usually brings his daughter with him wherever he goes, but she wasn't with him today.

      I couldn't see what started this, but there was another huge escalation. People started running away as officers and protestors fought through the fence. People are throwing glass bottles at the police. At least three people pulled into a police car.pic.twitter.com/22lqpopJbs

      The situation has gotten as bad as its been a night. Police charged into the parking lot and started hitting people. Two officers smacked my phone out of my hand and shoved me to the ground. Don't know how many arrests, but at least a dozen from what I could see.pic.twitter.com/L7Q5xQyWSe

          I had my press badge held up in one hand and my phone in the other while I was saying "I'm a reporter." Two Chicago Police officers repeatedly pushed me, then smacked my phone out of my hand and threw me back. I lost my balance but can't remember if I hit the ground or not.pic.twitter.com/vhi4gjlNla

          Reporters should be obeying the police commands. Period. It's one thing to report but it's another to get in the mix of violence when police are trying to calm the situation. I have no sympathy for you. #BackTheBlue

          Oh yeah Sandy, they were totally trying to calm the situation by beating bystanders and pushing women into crowds.

          I don't see the police coming to you in that video. I see YOU approaching the police and attempting to film a crime scene. Oh, and now you're crying "VICTIM" 😂 #BackTheBlue 👮‍♂️👮‍♀️🚔🚓🚨
