Phoenix settles police shooting lawsuit for $1 million with family of two brothers
The family of two brothers killed in a police shootout in 2020 has settled a lawsuit with Phoenix City Council for $1 million.
Police got to her house near 22nd Street and Indian School Road, and according to a critical incident briefing, they found Emmett and George arguing with each other. Since 2019, the Phoenix Police Department has produced critical response briefing videos with summaries of police shootings that include some bodycam footage, 911 calls and a narration of the events that led to the shooting.
Police said evidence showed George fired the rifle in a critical incident briefing. The video from the body-worn camera does not clearly capture the men or a visible gun because of the distance and the fence obstructing the view. Police officers who were at a distance behind a fence loudly told one of them to drop a gun, and the two men went back inside the house through the back door.
Police had responded to calls from the family before and, according to the lawsuit, had usually helped “defuse the disturbance” without force.
