• holding that, under 745 ILCS 10/9–102, “the City cannot be held vicariously liable when its individual officers are not liable.”
• explaining that “[a]pplication of the reasonableness test ‘requires careful attention to the facts and circumstances of each particular case’” (quoting Graham, 490 U.S. at 396)
• explaining the similar principle that a witness testifying that she did not hear police shout a command does not necessarily create a triable issue of fact as to whether the police actually gave the command
• officers reasonably used deadly force to prevent escape to protect others even after the decedent drove past the officers
