Chicago Mayor Anton Cermak was shot to death when a gunman tried to assassinate President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt in Miami in 1933. Roosevelt was unhurt.
The city budget approved by the mayor and City Council last month restored $58 million in funding for the library systems that had been stripped away.
Chicago police say the person was seen running with a handgun and attempted to throw it away but was "unsuccessful." When the person picked the handgun up again officers opened fire, striking them multiple times, according to police.
