CHICAGO — The Justice Department plans to begin a far-ranging investigation into the patterns and practices of the Chicago Police Department, part of the continuing fallout over a video released last month showing the police shooting of Laquan McDonald, a person familiar with the case said Sunday.

The investigation, similar to those used to scrutinize troubled police departments in Ferguson, Mo., and Baltimore, could be announced as early as this week.
