$250,000 for what?

if the case goes to trial they could get $2.5 billion!

This is an example of the incompetence running the city. The gun pulled a gun. The claim is invalid. 

The Chicago Finance committee agenda for Thursday is a proposed $250,000 payout to the family of 27-year-old Martice Milliner. According to published reports, a CPD officer shot Milliner in the Chatham neighborhood in July 2015, after he pointed a gun at an officer

Police reportedly were responding to a call of a man with a gun near 75^th and Langley, when they approached a man who matched the suspect’s description, and he started to

quickly walk away. When an officer grabbed Milliner by the collar, police said he reached for his gun, and the officer shot him. As Milliner fell to the ground, he pointed his gun at the officer, who shot him again, police said, according to published reports.

If approved by the Finance Committee, the proposed settlements would go to the full City Council for a vote next week
