Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost has expressed his condolences following the death of a Hamilton County deputy sheriff who was killed in the line of duty.
Yost stated, “In the coming days and weeks, law enforcement officers across Ohio and the nation will solemnly gather to honor their fallen brothers and sisters. This loss – so close to those annual remembrances – is a cruel reminder of the many officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice on our behalf. The officers who protect our communities day in and day out are heroes."
He extended his "deepest condolences" to the deputy's family and the entire Hamilton County Sheriff's Office.
