The city will have to write the check. Money comes from the taxes the city imposes as property taxes, sales tax, traffic fines and other revenue sources. Many cities are buying insurance for events like these.
$22 million sounds a bit excessive and may be reduced on appeal. But it sounds like the jury was sending a message to the police department.
