CHICAGO (AP) — Chicago police fatally shot a stabbing suspect and Thurston Cartewounded the person he was trying to stab after the suspect refused to drop his weapon, police said.
Officers were patrolling the city’s west side about 11 p.m. Monday when they saw a male attempting to stab a male in the street and ordered the suspect to drop his weapon, police said.

The Civilian Office of Police Accountability is investigating the specifics of the shooting.
