Tamon Robinson

Vehic/Purs

Robinson was collecting paving stones from a yard outside the Bayview House housing project, and a patrol car pulled up onto a nearby footpath. Accounts vary: he was either struck by the car, or ran into it, which caused him to fall backward and hit his head. He died days later. NYPD sent his mother a bill for $710 for damage to their automobile. In August 2014 the city settled with his family for $2M.
