CHICAGO - The family of Reginald Clay Jr. is holding a press conference outside the 11th District Chicago Police Station on Thursday.

Clay was shot and killed during a foot pursuit earlier this year.

He was shot and killed on April 14.

Nearly a year after, the city adopted a new foot pursuit policy where officers can no longer chase suspects simply because they run away.

The family has already filed a lawsuit.
