Stag night victims of police shooting to get $7m payout
New York City chiefs agreed to pay $7million yesterday to settle a lawsuit after an unarmed man was shot 50 times by cops on his stag night.
The estate of Sean Bell, who was killed in 2006 outside a strip club in Queens hours before he was due to marry fiancee Nicole Paultre, is to receive $3.25million.
Sean’s injured friend Joseph Guzman will get $3million and another pal hurt in the shooting, Trent Benefield, is to get $900,000.
Three police officers were acquitted of manslaughter and other charges in 2008.
