San Diego proposes $30M settlement with family of Konoa Wilson, a 16-year-old shot by police in Jan. 2025.

San Diego has proposed a $30 million settlement with the family of Konoa Wilson, a 16-year-old Black teen fatally shot by officer Daniel Gold in January 2025 at a downtown train station. Footage shows Wilson fleeing when he was shot in the back without warning. If approved, the settlement would be one of the largest for a U.S. police-involved killing, surpassing the George Floyd case. The family’s lawsuit cites excessive force, racial bias, and failure to identify Wilson as a threat. Gold remains on administrative leave, and the case has drawn national attention to police use of force and racial disparities.
