An off-duty Chicago police officer fatally shot a robbery suspect at a Walgreens store. The officer walked into the store to use the ATM machine. The officer became suspicious when he saw a female employee frantically stashing money in a bag behind the counter while a large man stood in front of the register. The officer walked toward the man, identified himself as an officer and asked the man to get down. There was a struggle, and the officer discharged his weapon. Police recovered a semi-automatic handgun from the scene.
