An autopsy report released on Friday revealed that Jayland Walker suffered dozens of gunshot wounds when Ohio police opened fire and killed him during a chase in which authorities said a weapon was fired from the suspect’s vehicle.
The 25-year-old black male refused to stop during a traffic stop over equipment violations and instead decided to flee, prompting a vehicle pursuit, according to the Akron Police Department. About 40 seconds into the chase, Walker allegedly fired a gunshot from his car.
At a press briefing early on Friday, Dr. Lisa Kohler, the medical examiner of Summit County, said Walker died as a result of blood loss caused by his internal injuries….
