DENVER — The Denver City Council approved two more excessive force settlements in its meeting Monday night, bringing the total payout for police brutality cases this year to more than $1 million.

In the settlement approved, officers are accused of using excessive force against Mark Ashford, an incident that was caught on camera, by police HALO cameras.

Ashford appeared to be walking his dogs and trying to take a picture of officers with his cell phone camera, when the confrontation began.

The settlement approved would give him $35,000.
