Family of slain Hofstra student, Andrea Rebello, ready to possibly sue Nassau County police


The family of a Hofstra University student mistakenly killed by police may be getting ready to sue.

Andrea Rebello was accidentally shot and killed by a Nassau County police officer during a home invasion.

A court document filed yesterday says a lawsuit could accuse Nassau County and its police department of wrongful death and negligent actions.

An attorney for the county says they have not been notified of any lawsuit.
