(CNN) Chicago police shot and killed a 13-year-old boy on the city's West side early Monday morning and haven't provided many details about the shooting in the four days since. The boy, identified by the Cook County medical examiner as Adam Toledo, lived near where the shooting happened in the Little Village neighborhood. The initial police department statement said an officer shot him during an "armed confrontation" and tweeted a photo of a gun that a spokesperson said was recovered at the scene. In a follow-up statement Thursday, Chicago Police Superintendent David Brown released a statement identifying the person shot by police as a juvenile but did not mention the boy's age and declined to release his name. The officer was placed on administrative duty for 30 days, he said.
