City to pay $6.5M to family of boy killed by cop car

July 27, 2011 (CHICAGO)

Gregory Jones died two days after being hit while crossing a street in Humboldt Park. Jones' relative, Datondra Mitchell, was also injured but she survived.

The settlement calls for $5.9 million to go to Jones' family. Mitchell, who is now 18 years old, will receive $590,000.

The settlement means there will not be a federal trial in the case.
