Man accused of shooting Marysville police officer indicted on nine charges
MARYSVILLE, Ohio (WCMH) — The man accused of shooting at a Marysville police officer before he drove away has been indicted on nine charges, including attempted aggravated murder. A Union County grand jury returned the indictment Friday against Dustin M. Ohm, 29, of Marysville. On May 30, police responded to a domestic dispute call on White Oak Court. According to details from police and Union County Prosecutor David Phillips, a sergeant tried to get Ohm, who was impaired, to exit his pickup truck. He refused and revved his engine. As the sergeant moved to deploy her taser, Ohm fired at nearly point-blank range. The sergeant was struck by shattered glass and two shots were found embedded in a house. Ohm then reportedly fired at three other officers, coming under return fire, and drove away. He crashed into multiple cars, including a police cruiser, exiting the neighborhood. The chase was joined by sheriff's deputies and the Ohio State Highway Patrol, ending on U.S. 33 in the median strip near Northwest Parkway. Ohm got out of the car armed and was shot several times by law enforcement. Phillips said that Ohm was also struck by a self-inflicted gunshot. The charges that Ohm faces are: Attempted aggravated murder of a law enforcement officer Three counts of felonious assault on a peace officer Having weapons while under disability Two counts of failure to comply with an order or signal of a police officer Discharging a firearm at or into a habitation Vandalism The sergeant struck by Ohm was treated at a hospital, and Ohm remains in a hospital under guard, Phillips said. The shooting of the Marysville officer was one of several times that central Ohio law enforcement officers have come under fire in recent weeks. A Morrow County deputy was fatally shot on Memorial Day, and two Mifflin Township officers were shot by a man on probation, sparking a manhunt after he ran away. Ohm is due in court on June 25.

Chase ends in 6-vehicle crash on I-75 after truck drives wrong way on highway
Jun. 6—A chase involving multiple law enforcement agencies ended in a six-vehicle crash on Interstate 75 that sent several people to the hospital. The exact number of people injured was not released, but none of the injuries were life-threatening as of Friday afternoon, according to the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office. Four people from the suspect vehicle were taken to the hospital. Several others from the remaining five vehicles were also transported. The chase involved the sheriff's office, Perry Twp. police and the Ohio State Highway Patrol. The suspect vehicle, a GMC Sierra, drove on the wrong side of the road multiple times — including on I-75 — and a person in the truck bed unloaded large wooden boards onto the roadway during the pursuit, according to the sheriff's office. The incident started around 8:28 p.m. after a Perry Twp. officer initiated a traffic stop on the truck near Diamond Mill Road and Wolf Creek Pike in Western Montgomery County. The truck reportedly had no visible registration, and its occupants are believed to be connected to recent thefts in the area. A Montgomery County sheriff's deputy was also in the area as part of a Violent Crime Reduction Blitz and responded to assist police. OSHP also provided air support. During the chase, the truck appeared to try to hit an unmarked sheriff's office vehicle on U.S. 35 near Hoover Avenue and West Third Street, according to the sheriff's office. Crews used multiple sets of stop sticks, or tire deflation devices, but the truck was able to regain traction and continue to flee. On eastbound U.S. 35 at Abbey Avenue, the truck crossed into the westbound lanes and drove into oncoming traffic. An unmarked sheriff's office vehicle hit rear driver's side of the truck near James H. McGee Boulevard to try and disable it. The driver regained control of the truck and continued going the wrong way on U.S. 35 before entering I-75 North and traveling in the opposite direction. Deputies followed closely behind the truck with lights and sirens activated to help shut down the highway and stop vehicles heading toward the truck, the sheriff's office said. At I-75 and Dryden Road, the truck hit a vehicle head-on, resulting in a six-vehicle crash. Other vehicles were slowing down when the crash happened, according to the sheriff's office. Four people in the truck tried to flee but were arrested by law enforcement. They were taken to the hospital with deputy guards. Several people from the other five vehicles in the crash were also transported to the hospital to be evaluated. OSHP is investigating the crash, and the sheriff's office is handling the criminal investigation. The suspects could face charges including possession of drugs, aggravated vehicular assault, fleeing and eluding and felonious assault of a peace officer, according to the sheriff's office. The Montgomery County Prosecutor's Office will formally review potential charges.
