A federal jury has awarded Lincoln firefighter Troy Hurd $1.2 million in his case against the city for retaliation he faced from Lincoln Fire and Rescue command staff after reporting that a female recruit from Iraq had been harassed.
Hurd wasn't in the Omaha courtroom for the verdict, reached at 12:15 p.m. Tuesday.
His attorney, Kelly Brandon, said the fire captain, who still works at Lincoln Fire and Rescue, was on duty.
"We hope that this is the catalyst for real change throughout Lincoln Fire and Rescue and the city of Lincoln," she said. "Troy Hurd, Sara Khalil and the rest of the firefighters who bravely testified deserve that."
