Fox News
Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost announced on Monday that a grand jury declined to indict eight officers involved in the shooting death last summer of Jayland Walker.
Walker eventually bailed out of the car and ran into a parking lot while wearing a ski mask, body camera footage shows. He reached into his waistband and then raised his hand during the foot chase, leading officers to believe that he was pulling out a gun, Yost said.
