7:03 am
seconds. protesters filled the streets shutting down traffic after dash cam video and the victim's faly pleaded for calm. alex perez is on the scene in chicago. good morning, alex. >> reporter: g good morng. investigators say that officer opened fire seconds after he got on the scene. that video only made public now because a judge ordered it be released. this morning, newly released dash cam video giving us a closer look at the chilling moment chicago police officer jason van dyke emptied his 9 millimeter gun on 17-year-old laquan mcdonald. we will freeze the video here. mcdonald died on his way to the hospital. >> it is violent. it is chilling. >> reporter: cook county state attorn anita alvarez charging him with first degree murder and his attorney refusing to answer questions, only saying -- >> this is not a murder case despite what you heard in the courtroom. >> reporter: the shooting took
