Police in Chicago shared surveillance images of a suspect in connection to the murder of Officer Luis Huesca early Sunday morning as the officer was driving home from work.
The two-minute video released Monday night shows the suspect walking into convenience stores on Saturday, and walking outside on a sidewalk early Sunday.
Police described the suspect as armed and dangerous.
Huesca was driving home at around 3 a.m. Sunday when he was shot multiple times in the Gage Park neighborhood.

Huesca was still in uniform, but it was covered by other clothing, which Police superintendent Larry Snelling said is normal for off-duty officers.
Huesca’s vehicle was stolen during the incident and found nearby a short while later, Fox News Digital previously reported, though police would not confirm whether the shooting was part of a carjacking.
