At 1:57 a.m., police officially request a medic, according to the fire division alarm office records.
The first ambulance to arrive, Medic 72, is from Upper Arlington, and takes about nine minutes to get there.
Station 19, in Clintonville, about the same distance away, arrives to Oberlin Drive three minutes after Upper Arlington s, according to fire division records.
The average response time during all shifts from the Clintonville station is about nine minutes.
Without knowing details about Hill s bullet wounds, it is unclear if response time would have made a difference. A detailed coroner s report is expected in 12 to 14 weeks.
But fire officials still want to know why the city s own paramedics were delayed in arriving when there was little traffic and no inclement weather.
The second officer who was at the scene when Adam Coy fatally shot Andre Hill in Columbus, Ohio, last week did not perceive any threat or see a gun, according to records released Tuesday.
Hill, 47, was holding a cellphone in one hand when he was fatally shot by Coy on Dec. 22 as he exited a garage. Coy and another officer, identified as Amy Detwiler, were responding to a neighbor’s non-emergency call about someone turning a vehicle on and off repeatedly and playing music. Both officers approached the scene with guns drawn, and Coy shot Hill within 10 seconds of approaching the garage.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) The fate of a white Columbus police officer who fatally shot a Black man last week hangs in the balance after a disciplinary hearing Monday that may result in his termination.
Columbus Safety Director Ned Pettus Jr. concluded a hearing to determine whether the actions taken by Officer Adam Coy in the moments before and after the fatal shooting of Andre Hill on Tuesday were justified.
Members of the police union representing Columbus officers attended the hearing on behalf of Coy, who was not in attendance, according to a statement from Pettus’ office.
The hearing comes after Police Chief Thomas Quinlan made a video statement Christmas Eve, saying he had seen enough to recommend Coy be terminated.
