LA County approved a nearly $2.6 million settlement with Capt. Arnoldo V. Sandoval, who was wounded when a fellow firefighter shot and killed another colleague at Station 81 in 2021.
The county Board of Supervisors approved the proposed $2.575 million settlement with Sandoval during its regular Tuesday meeting. In a letter to the board, County Counsel Dawyn R. Harrison wrote that the case is "an employment-related lawsuit filed by a fire department employee who was shot and seriously injured in the Fire Station 81 incident."
"This proposed settlement is recommended due to the risks and uncertainties of litigation, and resolution at this time would avoid further litigation costs," Harrison wrote.
