Lawyers for New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio paid Dominique Sharpton, 32, a $95,000 settlement after admitting the city had been aware of the cracked pavement but did not fix it.

After a thorough evaluation, we determined that settling this case was in the best interest of the city, a spokesman for New York Citys Law Department said in a statement.

The 32-year-old, who is Sharptons eldest daughter, sued New York City for $5 million in April 2015 for severely injuring her ankle while crossing an uneven Manhattan street in 2014.

I sprained my ankle real bad lol, Dominique Sharpton wrote in an Instagram post after she took a tumble in October 2014.

Sharpton claimed in her lawsuit that she suffered from permanent physical pain, but subsequent social media posts just months after the fall showed she had a very active lifestyle.

One of her Instagram posts showed Sharpton climbing mountains on vacation, while she sported high heels and climbed a ladder to hang Christmas decorations in other social media photos.

Despite the windfall, Sharpton said Friday she was not aware of the settlement.

I dont really know the particulars at this time, she told the Post.
