The city of Milwaukee offered Sterling Brown $400,000 to settle his lawsuit accusing police of using excessive force.
The incident occurred in January 2018 as Brown received a ticket for illegally parking in a disabled spot at Walgreen's. The situation escalated as police took Brown to the ground and used a stun gun after he failed to remove his hands from his pockets as ordered.
Brown's attorney said that the city's offer was insufficient because it didn't include an admission of guilt, and that any settlement would have to include a similar admission.
