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.
