A grand jury has voted not to indict eight Ohio police officers who fired 94 rounds at Jayland Walker after a car and foot chase that ended in the 25-year-old Black man being shot to death last summer. Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost announced the decision Monday. Walker’s death in June sparked protests in Akron after police released body camera footage showing officers firing from multiple directions after Walker jumped out of his moving car. Police say Walker fled an attempted traffic stop for minor equipment and traffic violations and fired a shot during the chase. Walker was shot 40 times. The NAACP and an attorney for Walker’s family have called for a federal civil rights investigation.
