VAN WERT, Ohio (AP) — Authorities say four Ohio sheriff's officers won't face any charges in the fatal shooting of a man who stole semitrailer cab and threatened to run over people during a two-county chase.
A prosecutor says a Van Wert County grand jury this past week decided against filing charges. The four officers returned to work Friday.
A dozen 911 calls from the September chase in western Ohio showed that 46-year-old Terry Pierce Jr. of Spencerville repeatedly told authorities he wouldn't pull over.
Pierce told police during the calls that he was going to kill everyone in his way and threatened to hit a school bus. He also said he would force police to shoot him.
Deputies fatally shot him after he drove the wrong way on a highway toward oncoming traffic.
