COLUMBUS, Ohio — Legal experts shared insight into what investigators may examine after dash camera video released Tuesday showed a Columbus police officer responding to a burglary call who drove through a red light and crashed into a truck, killing the driver.

The officer remains on administrative leave while the Ohio State Highway Patrol investigates.

The video shows the cruiser with lights and sirens traveling westbound on Broad Street before entering the intersection at North Central Avenue and colliding with a truck driven by Corey Tinnes, who died in the crash.

The Columbus Division of Police policy requires officers to use “due regard” when proceeding through stop signs or red lights, meaning they must exercise an “increased level of caution.”
