Chicago Police Supt. David Brown has received a recommendation from COPA to fire the officer involved in a 2019 fatal crash on the city's West Side.

The family of a woman killed in a crash involving two Chicago police vehicles has filed a lawsuit.Police misconduct investigators have recommended that Chicago police Supt. David Brown move to fire an officer who "endangered numerous lives" when authorities say he caused a 2019 crash that left an elderly woman dead and 10 of his fellow officers hurt on the West Side.

Brown's van collided with a police SUV with four officers inside, then crashed into a civilian sedan. A passenger in that car, 89-year-old Verona Gunn, died from her injuries at a hospital. COPA found that Brown failed to follow basic safety practices and violated the department's policies, and called for Brown to be fired from the department."Officer Brown's decision to continue driving the police van in such a manner that endangered numerous lives, caused multiple injuries and a fatality is unjustified and he should not remain a member of the Chicago Police Department," investigators wrote.
