Man who sued police for excessive force awarded $154,000
Thursday the City of Austin gave a man who sued police for excessive force $154,000.
In April 2011, Carlos Chacon felt he got caught up in a situation involving criminal activity.
"What I did is, as a good citizen, is I called the police and I reported it. I identified myself fully with a description of my vehicle and myself. I stayed on the phone the whole time with the operator and I waited for the police to arrive," Chacon said.
