LITTLE ROCK FORKS OVER $1.5 MILLION IN SETTLEMENT FOR QUESTIONABLE FATAL SHOOTING BY OFF-DUTY OFFICERS


EUGENE ELLISON -KILLED BY OFF-DUTY COPS


An attorney for the family of a Eugene Ellison fatally shot by Little Rock police in 2010 says the roughly $1.5 million settlement in the family’s lawsuit marks the largest settlement in the city’s history for a police shooting.

The city agreed Friday to pay the family of Eugene Ellison $900,000 and formally apologize. Attorney Mike Laux says that brings the total settlement in the family’s lawsuit to about $1.5 million, when added to the agreement reached in April with the apartment complex where the shooting occurred.

Laux says that’s the largest settlement in Little Rock history for such a case, and likely the state.

Laux says the apology from the city is more important to Ellison’s sons, one of whom is a Little Rock police lieutenant and another who is a former Little Rock police officer.

Ellison was shot after the two off-duty officers who were working security at the building entered Ellison’s apartment without a warrant. The lawsuit alleged that one of the officers improperly used deadly force by shooting Ellison following an argument and scuffle.

Neither of the officers, who are both white, were criminally charged. Both remain on the Little Rock police force.
