City of Lodi in Northern California to Pay $2.6M to Indian American Family of Veteran Killed by Police
Police said that 14 shots were fired during the shooting. Shergill's relatives have said they counted 14 bullet holes in his body and have questioned why police fired that many times.
The Northern California city of Lodi has agreed to pay more than $2.5 million to an Indian American family of a mentally ill Gulf War veteran killed by police in 2014.
Police at the time responded to the home of Parminder Singh Shergill, a veteran of Operation Desert Storm in the 1990s, when Shergill’s sister-in-law called 911 and said the veteran was attacking his mother.
