Firefighters: An article in Section A on Tuesday about a $1.6-million jury award to two white firefighters in a hazing incident included a list of other costs to the city of Los Angeles in the same case. In the 2004 incident, black firefighter Tennie Pierce’s dinner was laced with dog food; the accompanying list said $1.5 million was awarded to Pierce four years ago. In fact, Pierce did not receive a $1.5-million settlement from the city until last September.
