Vaughn-Harrell's family filed a lawsuit against the city of Chicago, claiming two officers took part in a high-speed pursuit and the car they were chasing crashed into Vaughn-Harrell, killing her and injuring her daughter.
The jury found the City of Chicago at fault for her death.
The city told ABC7, "The Department of Law is reviewing the verdict and assessing its legal options."
