This photo provided by Chicago Police Department shows Vincent Richardson. Authorities say Richardson, who is charged with felony impersonation of a police officer, was arrested Wednesday, Feb. 10, 2021. Richardson is accused of pretending to be a Chicago police sergeant on Jan. 14, Jan. 27 and Feb. 3. During an afternoon hearing, Cook County Assistant State’s Attorney Ellen Brett outlined incidents on Jan. 14, Jan. 27 and Feb. 3 in which Vincent Richardson, wearing a full Chicago police uniform, allegedly pretended to be a sergeant. “Your actions show you are a danger to the community,” the judge said before ordering Richardson be held in lieu of $75,000 bond.

Those killed included a 30-year-old University of Chicago student from China named Yiran Fan, Anthony Faukner, 20, and Aisha Nevell, 46, a security guard.

Authorities didn't release many details about Nightengale, a Chicago man whose LinkedIn page listed work over the years as a janitor, security guard and forklift operator. In one posted Thursday, Nightengale held a gun to the camera and muttered unintelligible statements as he appeared to be driving.

Authorities have said they found a gun at the scene, but they acknowledge that the officers who shot him were not wearing cameras. After Allen was shot on Sunday, activists immediately seized on the news that the officers were not wearing body cameras. These details are uncorroborated, partially because CPD also claims there is no body camera footage available for this interaction, the group said. Questions about the lack of body cameras extend beyond activist groups. Chicago police have also used body camera footage to show that officers acted properly, possibly heading off the kind of rampage that unfolded this week.

Protesters gather on Federal Plaza Thursday, July 23, 2020, after a collection of Chicago activists groups announced they are filing a federal lawsuit against the Chicago Police Department, Fraternal Order of Police, and the federal government, in Chicago.

Aislinn Pulley, a founding member of Black Lives Matter in Chicago, speaks at a rally on Federal Plaza Thursday, July 23, 2020, after a collection of Chicago activists groups announced they are filing a federal lawsuit against the Chicago Police Department, Fraternal Order of Police, and the federal government, in Chicago. The announcement did little to calm some Chicago residents fear that the agents presence will lead to the violent clashes between demonstrators and federal agents seen in Portland. The suit filed by Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum accuses federal agents of arresting protesters without probable cause, whisking them away in unmarked cars and using excessive force. The suit referenced Trump's comments Wednesday blaming a push to defund, dismantle and dissolve police departments for violent crime along with the president's past support for federal agents' presence in Portland. Neither the President, Defendant Barr, nor Defendant Wolf gave any assurance that the hundreds of federal agents flooding Chicago would leave protestors alone, the activists' lawsuit said.
