On Tuesday, the San Diego City Council will vote to approve a $30-million settlement with the family of Konoa Wilson, a teen who was shot earlier this year by police as he ran out of the Santa Fe Depot downtown.

This settlement could be the largest ever resulting from a police killing in the United States, surpassing the $27-million settlement the city of Minneapolis reached with the family of George Floyd, the Wilson family attorney, Nicholas Rowley, told the San Diego Union-Tribune.

“I've never seen a city take responsibility so quickly,” Rowley said. “It’s really noble. It really is. It was an officer out there trying to keep people safe. It was a mistake.”

On the night of Jan. 28, Konoa, 16, ran away from an individual who began shooting at him at the station's west platform, according to surveillance footage.
