CHICAGO- Chicago Police fatally shot a man early Friday after he refused to stop stabbing another man at his Near West Side home.
Tyrone K. Bell, 20, of 145 N. Bell Ave., was shot at his home and was dead on the scene, said the Cook County Medical Examiner's office.
Independent Police Review Authority spokesman Mark Payne said a Chicago Police officer fatally shot Bell inside a building about 1:30 a.m.
Police were notified of a battery in progress about 1 a.m. and responding officers found Bell stabbing somebody. The officers ordered Bell to stop and one of the officers shot him when he refused, police News Affairs said.
The person who was stabbed was taken to John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital of Cook County in an unidentified condition.
No officers were injured, Payne said. This was the second fatal police shooting this week in Chicago. A 17 year old was shot and killed on Tuesday after an encounter with authorities.
