Amarillo College and city settle wrongful death suit
Amarillo College and the city of Amarillo have reached an out of court settlement with the family of Carl Glen Wheat in a federal wrongful death suit filed last year. The suit claimed six officers killed Wheat with a chokehold during a traffic stop on a police cruiser. The settlement was reached March 26 in mediation, and a hearing on court approval was sought jointly by the city and college. An autopsy cited neck compression during restraint with methamphetamine intoxication as a contributing factor. No action was taken by a Potter County grand jury in 2001.
