Handling Kafka Tombstone Records

I have a pipeline using the Kafka multi-topic consumer as the origin and ultimately writing to Databricks.  How do I handle processing tombstone messages from Kafka?  I’m getting the following error from the origin for those records:

KAFKA_74 - Tombstone message: payload is null

Is there a connection configuration property or something that will allow these records to be processed?
