News coverage of the Dec. 22, 2020, fatal shooting of a man walking toward a Columbus police officer while holding a cellphone produced a type of police body- camera video that many people probably didn’t know was possible.
Video from the body camera of officer Adam Coy showing Andre Hill being killed was possible because of a feature on the device called a “look-back.”
Lt. Tom Collins of the Austintown Police Department, whose Motorola body cameras have the look-back feature, explained that the feature requires that the camera be running at all times.
“Our body cameras are always on, and they are recording,” Collins said.

Staff report
WARREN The Trumbull County Sheriff’s Office is warning the public about a scam involving telephone calls that appear as if they are coming from the sheriff’s office.
Chief Deputy Joe Dragovich said numerous complaints have come in regarding phone calls to people by someone claiming to be from the sheriff’s office pressuring residents to pay money to avoid being jailed on a supposed outstanding arrest warrant.
Dragovich said the scammers involved are “very good” at pressure tactics. He said the scammers “cloned” a sheriff’s office phone number, but that is part of the scam.
