Following a chase, Hialeah police forced Lester Machado off the road, then fired into his disabled vehicle 120 times, killing him.
This week, five years after the October 2017 shooting, Hialeah agreed to pay $500,000 to settle a wrongful-death lawsuit filed by his mother, according to a copy of the agreement provided by the city.
Most incidents in which police opened fire into a vehicle involved suspects who were armed. Machado was not. Officers said they tried to pull him over because he had a broken license plate light, though his family’s attorneys said in court papers that the light was functioning. Under Hialeah police department policy, officers are not supposed to pursue people for minor traffic violations,. But police said that Machado had used the vehicle as a deadly weapon and that the chase was justified.
