The family of a seven-year-old boy who was crushed by a falling tree branch has reached a settlement with the city and other parties named in the family’s 2010 lawsuit.

The terms of the settlement are confidential, but an Omaha spokesman says the city is paying $5,000 to Jeremiah Williams’ family. It’s not known what the other parties in the lawsuit — the Omaha Housing Authority and Eden Tree and Landscape — are paying.

Jeremiah’s family had sought $3 million in its lawsuit filed in December 2010, seven months after Jeremiah died when a tree branch fell on his head.

The boy’s family said the city and housing authority should have warned residents about the dangerous conditions and inspected the tree.
