The city of San Diego in California has agreed to pay $30 million (£22.5 million) to the family of Konoa Wilson, the 16‑year-old teenager who was fatally shot by a police officer earlier this year. The landmark deal, which is scheduled for a formal vote at the City Council, is one of the biggest civil settlements resulting from a police-related death in United States history.
Of the total, $5 million (£3.75 million) is reportedly to be contributed directly by the city, with the remaining $25 million (£18.75 million) coming from the city's Public Liability Fund.
