$4.85m for family of Ohio man killed by police officer

The family of a black Ohio man killed by a University of Cincinnati police officer during a traffic stop will receive $4.85m (€4.44m) and free college tuition for his 12 children in a settlement, lawyers said.

Body camera video of the traffic stop showed Samuel DuBose, 43, was shot in the head by officer Ray Tensing in July last year after he was pulled over for a missing front licence plate on his car.

Mr DuBose attempted to prevent the officer from opening the car door before the car started slowly rolling forward. Mr Tensing, who is white, pulled his gun and fired once.
