Body-Camera Video Shows Ohio State Trooper Unleashing Police Dog on Black Driver
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Ohio, newly released body-camera video shows a State Highway Patrol
officer unleashing a police dog on an unarmed Black truck driver after a
traffic stop south of Columbus on July 4. The footage shows 23-year-old
Jadarrius Rose had his hands in the air when a handler directed the dog
to attack him. Rose was bitten, dragged by the arm, hospitalized and
later released to be booked at the Ross County Jail on felony charges of
failure to comply. So far there's no sign the officer responsible for
the attack has faced any disciplinary action.
