The city of Minneapolis has apparently reached a settlement with a woman who claims then-police officer Derek Chauvin used excessive force against her in 2020, four months before Chauvin kneeled on George Floyd, killing him.

In a lawsuit, Patricia Day says Chauvin and his partner Ellen Jensen violently pulled Day from her car and threw her to the ground.  The complaint alleges that Chauvin then knelt on Day’s back while she was handcuffed — in a similar manner to Chauvin’s treatment of Floyd, who died after Chauvin knelt on his back for more than nine minutes. Day said she suffered a cracked tooth and injuries to her arm and leg.

Chauvin was convicted of murder in Floyd’s murder and sentenced to spend more than 20 years in prison.

According to the court docket, the settlement with Day was reached Jan. 10.

The Minneapolis City Council will consider the settlement during a closed session Thursday. The amount the city agreed to pay has not yet been made public.

The city has already paid out nearly $40 million to settle a lawsuit from Floyd’s family as well as $9 million to settle suits from Zoya Code and John Pope. They say Chauvin knelt on their necks and backs during separate confrontations in 2017.
