Zulock v. Shures

OPINION

McKEAGUE, Circuit Judge.

Joseph Zulock sued Police Officer Thomas Shures, Detective Frank Hensley, and the City of Middletown, Ohio, pursuant to both 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and Ohio law after Shures shot Joseph Zulock while investigating whether Zulock had been involved in a “hit-skip” car accident.

We now affirm.
