The Chicago City Council OK'd a $1.67 million settlement after police dragged Mia Wright from a car amid unrest that followed George Floyd's murder.
CHICAGO -- The Chicago City Council has voted to pay nearly $1.7 million to five people, including a Black woman who said police dragged her from a car by her hair at a shopping mall amid unrest following George Floyd's 2020 killing.Mia Wright and four relatives filed against the city.
Wright said she and four relatives drove to the mall to go shopping and did not realize it was closed due to the unrest. The lawsuit alleges police officers suddenly surrounded their car, broke the windows with their batons and pulled Wright out of the vehicle by her hair. Officers said they thought some members of Wright's group were attempting to break into a store at the mall to steal goods, city lawyer Caroline Fronczak has said, but the officers also acknowledged nobody in the group matched the descriptions of the suspected looters.3rd CPD officer involved in Brickyard Mall incident stripped of police powers as complaints about police conduct rise
