Albuquerque police have agreed to pay $6.5 million to settle a wrongful death lawsuit after they fatally shot and killed Jesus Crosby. The incident occurred when officers tried to talk to Crosby, who was holding what they believed was a knife, before they opened fire. The family argued that armed officers should not have responded to a mental health crisis. The city attorney's office stated that the incident should have been handled differently and that the city continues to improve its response to people experiencing a mental illness.
