Warren Robinson was a 16-year-old African American male fatally shot by Chicago police on July 5, 2014, in the Gresham neighborhood on the South Side. Officers had responded to a call about a man with a gun; Robinson was chased after he reportedly matched the caller’s description, hid under a car, and, according to reports, pointed a gun at officers. He was shot 16 times and died at the scene.

The shooting prompted controversy and legal battles over transparency. The city refused to release police reports, citing state laws protecting juvenile records, a position challenged by NBC5 News and questioned by legal experts who said the law may not bar disclosure in cases alleging police misconduct. The Independent Police Review Authority carried out a standard review, but findings were not released under the confidentiality rules.
