CITY TO PAY PARENTS OF BOY KILLED IN RAID

The city of Modesto announced Wednesday that it would pay $2.55
million to settle a suit brought by the parents of a boy killed in a
drug raid two years ago.

Alberto Sepulveda, 11, was accidentally shot and killed by a member of
the Modesto Police Department's SWAT team in September 2000.

Modesto's city attorney, Michael Milich, said most of the sum would be
covered by insurance.
