27:07Now PlayingThe City of Arvada and the family of a good Samaritan have reached a settlement in a lawsuit stemming from a 2021 shooting, the family's attorneys said Thursday.
Kathleen Boleyn, the mother of Johnny Hurley, filed the lawsuit against the police department a year after her son was shot and killed by an Arvada Police officer.
On June 21, 2021, Arvada Police Officer Gordon Beesley was ambushed and fatally shot in Olde Town Arvada by Ronald Troyke. Hurley, who was inside a nearby store at the time, ran out and shot Troyke, according to police. Hurley picked up Troyke's rifle and was shot and killed by a responding officer.
"Recognizing that this was a horrific set of circumstances for all involved, the parties have agreed to settle this matter," Rachael Kuroiwa with the City of Arvada said in a joint statement. "In reaching a settlement, the parties acknowledge the tragic loss of Officer Beesley and Mr. Hurley and acknowledge Mr. Hurley’s heroic actions under trying and unusual circumstances. These men were loved by their families and friends; they were valued members of their communities.
