County awards $20 million to family of man who died after being handcuffed and shot in Maryland police car


(CNN) Prince George's County, Maryland, has reached a settlement with the family of William Howard Green, who was handcuffed in a police cruiser when an officer allegedly fatally shot him, the county announced Monday. "Prince George's County has reached a settlement agreement with the Green family for $20 million," County Executive Angela Alsobrooks said at a news conference. "To be clear, there is no price that you can put on the life of a son, a father and uncle, a brother. "We believe that the actions taken that night against Mr. Green, and ultimately taken against his family, warrant this settlement." Relatives and a family attorney have described Green as fun-loving, peaceful and quick to make folks smile.
