The Chicago City Council approved a $15M settlement with the estate of Guadalupe Francisco-Martinez, who was killed after she was struck by CPD.
Chicago City Council on Wednesday approved a $15 million settlement with the estate of a woman killed in a crash with a CPD squad car during a police chase in 2020.
Oliver, who lived in Fernwood, was driving a dark-colored Jeep about 8:15 p.m. near 115th Street and Cottage Grove Avenue when officers noticed it was possibly wanted for several crimes in the nearby suburbs, police said. They tried to curb the Jeep in the 9400-block of South Union Avenue, but it took off and led police on a chase into Irving Park on the Northwest Side. Oliver's car allegedly reached speeds exceeding 100 mph.
While chasing the Nissan with their sirens activated, a marked squad car slammed into a Ford Explorer traveling north on Ashland Avenue, police said. The driver, Francisco-Martinez, was taken to Illinois Masonic Medical Center, where she died."This was a terrible, heart-wrenching story," 38th Ward Ald. Nicholas Sposato said. "It's just a terrible thing."
