COLUMBUS, Ohio — A white, former Ohio police officer is set to go on trial Monday in the killing of Andre Hill, an unarmed Black man who was shot as he emerged from a garage holding a cellphone nearly four years ago.
Police body camera footage showed Hill emerging from the garage of a friend’s house holding up a cellphone in his left hand, his right hand not visible, seconds before he was fatally shot by Coy. About 10 minutes passed before officers at the scene began coming to Hill’s aid, who lay bleeding on the garage floor. He was later pronounced dead at a hospital.
Coy had a lengthy history of complaints from residents, with more than three dozen filed against him since he joined the department in 2002, according to his personnel file. A dozen of the complaints were for use of force. All but a few were marked “unfounded” or “not sustained.”
