DC reaches court settlement with man detained while protesting troops’ patrol with Darth Vader song

The District of Columbia has settled with Sam O’Hara, who claims police illegally detained him while he protested using the Darth Vader theme song against the Trump administration’s federal law-enforcement surge. The settlement amount remains undisclosed, and O’Hara will drop his lawsuit against the district and four officers. Related claims against an Ohio National Guard member remain unresolved.
