The District of Columbia has agreed to pay $50,000 to settle a lawsuit brought by a resident who said he was illegally detained by police while protesting, according to documents released by outlets citing the record. The resident alleges that he followed an Ohio National Guard patrol and played Darth Vader’s theme from the “Star Wars” franchise on his phone during the incident. He later filed suit claiming officers detained him unlawfully in connection with the conduct. The settlement figure is reported as part of a court document. The accounts describe the matter as stemming from the resident’s actions while accompanying or following the patrol and the music he played. The sources do not provide details on the police department’s position in the settlement record beyond the fact of the agreement to resolve the lawsuit. The reporting presents the settlement as a resolution of the resident’s claims, with payment intended to end the legal dispute.
