SKOKIE, Ill. (CBS) -- New video was released Thursday showing a police shooting under investigation in Skokie.

Police said they were trying to arrest Demetrius Bogan after finding a large amount of marijuana in his sport-utility vehicle.

Bogan survived and was later charged with attempted murder.
