Grand jury drops charges against CPD officer accused of punching handcuffed suspect
A grand jury declined to indict a Chicago police officer who was accused of punching a handcuffed suspect who had been shot Christmas Eve outside a Near West Side police station, prosecutors said.
Hillas was relieved of his police powers Dec. 31 and the matter was turned over to the Civilian Office of Police Accountability, according to the Police Department. As they approached, Hillas opened the rear door of the squad car and told the suspect: “Here, I got you man,” according to McCarthy. Attorney Tim Grace, who represented the officer, asserted that Hillas believed the suspect hit him first.
