Hartford’s city council has agreed to a $450,000 settlement to be paid to a man who was beaten by police in a case of mistaken identity in 2004, ending his professional football career.
The settlement comes nearly three years after a federal grand jury awarded Tylon Outlaw, now 44 and the head football coach at Bloomfield High School, $450,000 in compensatory damages.
