Sacramento County officials have agreed to pay a $1.725 million settlement to the family of a man who was killed in a 2017 deputy-involved shooting, according to the family’s attorney.
Mikel Laney McIntyre was shot and killed by deputies in 2017 after hitting a Rancho Cordova police officer and a Sacramento County sheriff's K-9 with large rocks near Highway 50, according to the sheriff’s office.
Officials said someone had called 911 after they saw McIntyre attacking a woman, who was later identified as his mother, in a shopping center parking lot.
When officers tried to detain McIntyre, he began fighting the officers and used a river rock to hit the officer and a K-9 over the head.
Deputies shot at McIntyre after the attack. He was taken to a nearby hospital where he later died, officials said.
“He had a mental illness and there was no consideration given to that fact when they used deadly force,” said the family attorney John Burris.
