Albert Chatfield
Police dash cam video of the incident shows  Albert Chatfield  immediately emerging from  his  car at an intersection and backpedaling from two police officers  who repeatedly shout for  him  to "stop." As  he  continues to back up through the street  one officer pulls out his Taser and  after the other officer is heard shouting "tase him " fires it.  Chatfield  is knocked to the ground instantly.
 The city  agreed to pay $900 000 to Chatfield's family over the incident  one of the fastest settlements in a Taser case in the state ever  according to the family's lawyer.  Chatfield  remains in the hospital after suffering bleeding on  his  brain due to the fall  according to ABC affiliate WCIV.
Police had claimed  Chatfield  assumed a "fighting stance" as  he  backpedaled from police. The video shows  the man  raising  his  hands  but  he  is slowly backing away from the officers throughout. The police report also described the scene as a busy street  saying they were trying to protect  Chatfield  and others' safety  though the video shows just one car in the intersection.
The family's lawyer  Justin Bamberg  blamed the police chase on a mental issue. Police had been called after  Chatfield  was aggressively tailgating other vehicles.
Bamberg said the money would be used to pay for  Chatfield 's medical expenses.
