Jeremy John Linhart, 30, of Findlay, Ohio, died on June 9, 2015, after an officer-involved shooting during a traffic stop on West Sandusky Street around 3 a.m. Linhart was a passenger; police removed him and the driver from the car, and Linhart attempted to re-enter the vehicle. A struggle followed and an officer’s gun discharged, striking Linhart. He was later pronounced dead at Blanchard Valley Hospital.

The bullet that killed Linhart was determined to have come from the officer’s weapon. The officer was placed on paid leave while the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation took over and awaited autopsy and toxicology results. There was no in-car or body camera footage of the incident. Linhart was known to police and had recent legal issues, including a possession arrest and a bench warrant for parole violation. He is survived by a 3-year-old daughter and family members who were awaiting answers.

Does anyone have information about the stop or the events on West Sandusky Street that night?
