(CNN) A Colorado grand jury ruled that charges would not be brought against Colorado Springs officers in the fatal shooting of De'von Bailey, according to a statement from the chief.

Wednesday's ruling was a "No True Bill," which dismisses the defendants when the grand jury does not find enough evidence to charge the defendant, according to a statement from Colorado Springs Police Chief Vince Niski.

CNN has reached out to the district attorney's office for comment.

In August, 19-year-old Bailey was shot in the back as he ran away from police when they tried to stop him for an alleged robbery in the area. Police later found that he was armed.

"What happened on August 3, 2019, is something neither police officers nor citizens ever want to experience," the chief said in a statement. "The loss of a son, a friend, a community member, is a devastating event that impacts all of us."
