A Henrico County police officer who was acquitted of any criminal wrongdoing after shooting a woman passenger in a car has settled out of court a civil lawsuit brought by the passenger.

Kimberly McNeil who was struck four times, including once in the back of the head, in the December 2015 incident sought $75 million from officer Joel D. Greenway of Sandston. The suit was filed in May.

The settlement agreement, which was reached last week, was not disclosed openly in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, so the details remain unclear and the case was dismissed with prejudice, according to online court records.

Henrico County Attorney Joseph P. Rapisarda Jr. said the settlement will be paid in full by the county, though he couldn’t say immediately how much the county would owe.

In October, a Henrico jury acquitted Greenway of all charges stemming from the shooting after more than 10 hours of deliberation.

It was about 10:30 p.m. on Dec. 15, 2015, when Greenway, who was on duty and in uniform, spotted what he called a suspicious vehicle at an Exxon station on Nine Mile Road, in an area known for drug activity. When Greenway approached the car, the driver, Robert Davis, attempted to drive off and the officer opened fire, striking the car seven times.
