Columbus agrees to pay family of Andre' Hill $10 million

On Dec. 28, Coy was terminated by the city. He is currently facing charges of murder, felonious assault and reckless homicide.

“We understand that because of this former officer’s actions, the Hill family will never be whole,” said Klein said. “No amount of money will ever bring Andre’ Hill back to his family, but we believe this is an important and necessary step in the right direction.”

In addition to the financial settlement, the city will rename the gymnasium located inside the Brentnell Community Center the Andre’ Hill Gymnasium. The city says the name change will be completed this year.
