Unarmed K-9 Attack in Ohio (Ohio State Highway Patrol)

*(CNN) — An unarmed Black man was attacked by a police officer’s K-9 as he surrendered to authorities with his hands up, despite an Ohio State Trooper repeatedly urging officers not to release the dog.

The July 4 incident followed a lengthy pursuit as officers tried to pull over a commercial semi-truck that failed to stop for an inspection, a video released by the Ohio State Highway Patrol shows.

According to a redacted Ohio State Highway Patrol case report obtained by CNN, a Motor Carrier Enforcement inspector tried to stop a semi-tractor trailer traveling west on US 35 in Jackson County because “the vehicle was missing a left rear mud flap.”

The inspector turned on his marked patrol vehicle lights and the “suspect vehicle continued west on US 35 and made eye contact” with the inspector, according to the report.

When the vehicle’s 23-year-old driver, Jadarrius Rose, failed to stop, the inspector notified dispatch to send a marked patrol unit to assist, according to the case report.

The video initially shows authorities pursuing a semi-truck that appeared to “slow down to a roll” to stop. As the semi-truck stops, the video shows an officer getting out of a vehicle, pointing a weapon toward the semi-truck, and ordering the driver to “get out of the truck.”
