In Wilmington, Ohio, jury selection is underway in the trial of Cheyne Kehoe. He's one of two brothers accused of shooting at Ohio police officers during a traffic stop that was caught on video tape.

One man is dead and two officers are injured after an overnight chase and shooting. Police said an officer tried to pull over a car on Cornell Road near Sycamore High School for driving without lights just before 12:30 a.m. The officer told dispatchers that he thought the Monte Carlo might be one stolen from Clermont County last week. Officers said the driver of the car, Charles Wayne Bennett, tried to run over the officer, then raced away, turning onto Reed Hartman Highway. As officers pursued the car at speeds up to 100 mph, they said Bennett rammed his car into a police cruiser, then hit a tree. But when officers approached on foot near Cooper Road, police said, Bennett drove the car at them again and continued down Reed Hartman as police fired on the car. "The vehicle was being used as a weapon," said police Capt. James Schaffer. After another collision, the car stopped again, and an officer attempted to arrest Bennett. When Bennett tried to hit the officer with the car, the officer ended up on the car's hood and fired twice, hitting Bennett at least once. Bennett, 37, was taken to Bethesda North Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Blue Ash police said two officers suffered injuries in the chase.

Officer Jim Simoni is in the lead as more than two dozen officers pursue a suspect through the darkened streets of Cleveland. The massive response is due to the fact that the suspect allegedly attacked a state trooper, rammed a cruiser and dragged a cop down the road. To make things worse, he's carrying a large gun while he drives.Officer Simoni has IDed the suspect and it appears he's heading home. The suspect drives slowly, but tensions are high as the suspect approaches his house. The suspect pulls into his driveway. As officers approach, he jumps out of the car pointing a .357 Magnum at them. He's hit with pepper spray, but refuses to drop the gun.When it looks like he's about to open fire, the officers are left with no other option but to open fire. The suspect and Officer Simoni go down in the volley of bullets. Both men are placed in cruisers and rushed to the hospital.The suspect is seriously injured, but Officer Simoni is a lot better off, thanks to his body armor. In fact, he gets to go home after a few hours of treatment.

Westlake- Fleeing bank robbery suspect Jason Saah raised what appeared to be a weapon at a police officer Friday before officers from Fairview Park and North Olmsted shot him to death, newly released footage from police officers' dashboard-mounted video cameras indicates."I'm convinced he pointed what appeared to be a firearm at the officers," Westlake police Capt. Guy Turner said Monday. "It was a grave mistake."The gun later proved to be a toy, but the police officers who fired on Saah obviously didn't know that, police said.At least six bullets struck the 21-year-old Fairview Park man, in the neck, trunk, right hand and left upper leg, a Cuyahoga County coroner's spokesman said Monday.Westlake police released dash-cam videos from two police cruisers.The videos show police cars stopping in front of and behind Saah and his getaway car; as one officer approached from the front and got to within a dozen feet of Saah's car, the suspect got out and raised his hand, in which he appeared to be holding a gun.Westlake police later said the putative weapon, a toy, was damaged by gunfire.Police said Saah robbed the National City Bank at Lorain Road and West 231st Street in North Olmsted. Saah drove away, but police cars surrounded him at Columbia Road and Westwood Road in Westlake at 4:07 p.m.At least two officers, from Fairview Park and North Olmsted, fired at him.

An Ohio police officer (Nick Rezac) was mowed down by a drunk driver this weekend and the whole incident was caught on tape. The officer was pulled over to help a stranded motorist when the drunk driver swiped the squad car sending the officer flying. The drunk driver was caught just down the road with a blown tire. His blood alcohol level was .23, nearly three times the legal limit in Ohio.Amazingly, the officer only suffered minor injuries. He said he was very sore but barely had any cuts or bruises from the incident.

Cheyne Kehoe has been returned to Ohio from Washington state, to face charges in a shootout with police last February in Wilmington, Ohio. His brother is already in Wilmington ... where both will be tried.

A man who was in police custody in Middleburg Heights after resisting arrest following a fender-bender crash Monday night has died, the police chief said.Chief John Maddox said officers responded to the scene of the rear-end style crash just after 11 p.m. at the intersection of Fowles and Pearl roads.At the scene, Maddox said officers determined the driver of the striking car, 41-year-old Howard Hammon of Westlake, was impaired. Police also found marijuana and paraphernalia on him.While trying to arrest Hammon, Maddox said he was being uncooperative and resisting, so two Tasers were used to subdue him."We Tased him once and it didn't knock him down," Maddox said. "It didn't seem to have any affect on him so we had to use a second one."Once officers gained control of him, they used two pairs of handcuffs to place him under arrest due to his large size. Maddox described him as 6'1 and 275 pounds.Maddox said after the Tasings, officers called for an ambulance to take Hammon to the hospital to be checked out and while they were waiting they noticed he wasn't breathing. He was pronounced dead at Southwest General.Maddox said Hammon had a history of criminal activity, including domestic violence, disorderly conduct and possession of cocaine with intent to distribute.Maddox said he won't know just what caused Hammon's death until the autopsy report is completed. Although it's never happened in Middleburg Heights, other suspects have died after being shocked with a Taser. However Maddox said "there's no proof that tasing causes death."After reviewing the case, Maddox said he believes his officers acted properly.

TWO POLICE OFFICERS ARE WOUNDED AFTER A SHOOTOUT WITH A MADMAN. AFTER A ROUTINE TRAFFIC STOP, THE SUSPECT SHOT ONE OFFICER. HE THEN LED COPS ON A SHORT CHASE WHERE HE ENDED UP SHOOTING ANOTHER AND TAKING HIS OWN LIFE. SUSPECT MATTHEW HUTCHINSON *23-YEARS OLD* HIT TWO OFFICERS WITH GUNFIRE. BOTH SERGEANT MATT BIESER AND OFFICER JEFF DUMA ARE RECOVERING AND WILL RETURN TO WORK SOON. BEISER WAS HIT IN THE LEG AND DUMA IN THE SHOULDER. THE DRIVER AND ANOTHER PASSENGER WERE CHARGED WITH COMPLICITY TO FELONIOUS ASSAULT.

The chase started in Alliance. Police there say an officer was tipped off by an employee of a local Circle K that a man who had just left the store appeared to be intoxicated.Captain Doug Neeb says as the man started driving away the officer saw him make a turn without signaling and attempted to pull him over.The driver stops momentarily, then decides to take off, leading Alliance police on a chase that police say reached speeds at times of 100 miles an hour.Police dash camera video shows the suspects car nearly crashing during the chase as the driver attempts to make a left hand turn.It is at that point Captain Neeb says Alliance officers got a good look at the man behind the wheel and stopped their chase because it was getting too dangerous.Sitting in a turn around on westbound interstate 76, the same car is next seen by a Brimfield Township who follows it from a distance, without lights or siren, into the parking lot of a local motel.There the driver is boxed in with nowhere to go.As officers approach his car they can be heard on Brimfield's dash camera video screaming for the driver to get out of the car.Alliance officers soon run into the picture announcing they have a taser, which is fired one of its probes hitting the driver, 52-year-old Stanley Fowler, the other probe hitting one of the other officers in the hand. Both are seen on the ground in agony jolted by the five second burst of electricity.Police say the taser was necessary because Fowler was resisting arrest.Fowler admits driving the car, in which police say there were four open beers. He does not however believe he was resisting.He told Fox 8 he had no idea an officer was injured during his arrest until we told him about it.Also on the video, Fowler's dog is seen attacking the officers. The animal was in the car with him at the time and according to Brimfield Police actually bit two of the officers before he was chased away by an officer swinging a baton at him.Fowler was eventually taken into custody and charged with OVI, resisting arrest, and felony failure to comply.On Monday he was apologetic saying he thinks a combination of bad events in his life caused him to use poor judgement, but he says the fact that an officer was tasered is something for which he does not feel responsible.Fowler says the officer who fired the taser needs to be held accountable for that.Police in Alliance and in Brimfield Township say the officers reacted with Fowler's and their own safety in mind and their actions were appropriate under the circumstances.Fowler's next court appearance is scheduled for May 19th.

A Dayton Police officer may have saved a driver’s life Sunday morning after noticing him driving erratically on State Route 35 in Dayton. The officer followed the driver eastbound, at about 60 mph. A cruiser camera showed the driver slamming into a concrete barrier at least a dozen times. The left front tire could be seen going flat. In fear that the 1998 Chevy Cavalier would flip, the officer called for medics to respond. The car continued just west of the intersection of SR-35 and Interstate 75, when the car swerved across the lanes, skidded to a halt, and slammed head-on into a concrete barrier. Officers ran to the rescue of the driver and said they had to cut him out of his seatbelt. It appeared he was having a seizure. Firefighters were called due to the car catching on fire, while medics attended to the driver. Lt. Bob Chabali, of the Dayton Police Department, said the quick action by medics probably saved his life. Officers said the driver admitted that he was high on heroin and they said they found several fresh syringes in the car. The driver has been identified as 28-year-old, Adam Spaeth. There was already a warrant out for Spaeth from Logan County for possession of drugs, and a warrant from Middletown for drug paraphernalia. He was treated in the hospital and then booked in the Montgomery County Jail on the charge of possession of drugs

What started out as a minor traffic violation for the driver of a pick up truck turned into a pulse-racing high speed chase for a New Philadelphia police officer. A pick up truck was spotted driving down the wrong way in an alley. After the officer got the registration off of the truck's license plate, he activated his lights. Instead of stopping, the driver took off, racing down Rt. 416 toward the Village of Tuscarawas. Police say the driver, 21-year-old Jeremy Murch, drove about 110 miles an hour down the two lane road, swerving to the left over double yellow lines to get around another car. At one point the officer told dispatchers he was slowing down to 90 miles an hour for safety reasons while letting the driver he was pursuing continue to outdistance him. The chase went on for about eight miles when Murch made a bad move. He tried to turn right at a traffic light, only to find out there wasn't a road there. He lost control, slamming his truck into a parked car and then a gas meter on the side of a house. Det. Capt. Michael Goodwin said, "(The) meter actually broke and was leaking natural gas. Fire Department and Dominion had to come shut the meter off. There was the potential of an explosion." A family inside the house had been asleep. The collision knocked the house an inch off its foundation. Clyde Milburn's head was right by the wall that was hit. "I was sleeping in my bedroom, I heard a big crash". Milburn says the collision knocked him out of his bed. His 14-year-old grandson, Foster, was sleeping on the living room floor. "I heard a big boom. It sounded like a shotgun going off," he said. After hitting the house on Main St. in Tuscarawas Murch was placed under arrest. Initially he didn't realize he'd hit a house. You can hear him talking to the officer on the cruiser's dash cam video asking, "I just hit his house?", and the officer responded by saying, "Yep". The officer then asked Murch why he didn't pull over, saying all he was going to do was cite him for a traffic violation. Murch responded by saying, "I've been drinking." To that the officer said, "So it's a heck of a lot better, wrecking somebody's truck and having a felony fleeing on your record isn't it?" Murch then asked, "It's a felony?". "Yea," said the officer. The driver has not only been charged with two misdemeanors, DUI and going the wrong way on a one way street, but he now faces a felony charge of fleeing and eluding the law. Murch underwent a breathalyzer test. His blood/alcohol content was .133, over the legal limit of .08. Police say Murch has a prior conviction for DUI back in Nov. of 2006.

An Amherst officer who had just arrived on scene to a back-up call had just a moment to decide whether or not to shoot at a man who was running toward him pointing a gun. It was a life and death situation and police say Officer Devin Small did what police officers are trained to do, he shot at the man.At a press conference Tuesday morning police said they're thankful a dashcam was rolling as the situation was unfolding. Police say the recording shows 50-year-old Robert Gonzalez, of Lorain holding a gun to his wife Nawassa's head.They were sitting down in the doorway of a business in downtown Amherst. That's when a passerby, Donald Gregg, saw the couple.Gregg stopped the first policeman who came to the scene and the officer started his dashcam. While that first officer called for assistance, police say Gregg went back to the couple. He was trying to get the husband to give up his gun. "At some point the male citizen got the gun from the male suspect and ran toward Patrolman Small, who was just again south of the incident, and pointed the gun at Patrolman Small. Patrolman Small fired, being in fear for his life," said Lt. Joseph Kucirek.Amherst police Lt. Kucirek said, despite orders from Officer Small to drop the gun, Gregg held it and ran toward Officer Small.Lucky for Gregg, Officer Small missed, hitting a street sign instead. "Luckily we were able to rely on the videotape and some audio from the videotape to put the story together and eventually find that the officer, Devin Small, acted reasonably and within police procedure with the action that he took," said Kucirek.After an internal investigation that involved looking at the tape, police say Officer Small was correct in firing at Gregg.Amherst Police say they won't file charges against Gregg. However, they advise others not to interfere in police matters. Police also pointed out that the Erie County Sheriff's Office has a warrant out for Gregg on another unrelated matter.

A bizarre drunk driving arrest in Ashtabula County. Police say not only was the driver wearing some unusual clothing, but his vehicle caught fire as he performed a field sobriety test. "This car that I'm behind right now was called in by an off duty police officer as being a possibly impaired driver," the Geneva police officer is heard saying in a recording from his dashboard mounted camera. Just before 2 a.m. Monday, the officer begins following a smoking car, with a loud exhaust, that he believes is being operated by a drunk driver. "There's all kind of smoke pouring out of that window," he remarks. He pulls the car over on State Route 534. 21-year-old Shane Starlin of Newbury is behind the wheel, smoking a cigar. "You can leave that cigar in the car," the officer advises, due to the large amount of smoke coming from the vehicle. That later turns out to be a bad idea. When Starlin gets out of the car, he's wearing among other things a kilt, and leather boots. He tells the officer, out of the camera's view, that he had just left the annual Medieval Faire, a summer-time attraction. "I noticed that your speech is a little bit slurred tonight, have you been drinking?" asked the officer. "Yes," replied Starlin, "About 3 to 4 beers." As the officer administered a field sobriety test, they noticed heavy smoke coming from the car. "You got papers on fire in the back of the car, what's what all about?" asked the officer. Police believe the fire was sparked by the cigar he left in the car. Firefighters were called to put it out before Starlin was charged with drunk driving. Geneva police say Starlin's breath test results were .141, above the legal limit of .08. He was cited for having a loud exhaust and operating a vehicle while intoxicated. Starlin plead no contest at his arraignment this morning in Western County Court. He was fined almost $600, and his license will be suspended for 180 days. Starlin will also be on supervised probation for one year.
