The City of Portland would pay
$35,000 to settle a lawsuit brought by a man who was injured during a March
2010 anti-police protest, under an ordinance that will go before city
commissioners Wednesday. The encounter, captured on television footage, resulted
in injuries to Clifford Richardson. He was treated at OHSU Hospital after his
head and face struck the pavement during a scuffle with an officer, according
to city records.
