MEDINA TOWNSHIP, Ohio — A man who abducted his 7-year-old daughter from a relative’s home in Ohio was killed by officers several hours later following a police chase, authorities said. The girl was not physically injured.
Police attempted to stop a vehicle driven by Alexander around 8 p.m. in Brunswick, but he continued driving and a chase involving multiple police departments ensued on Interstate 71 south, the Medina County Sheriff’s Office said. Alexander’s vehicle eventually was disabled by law enforcement devices that deflate tires, and he exited the highway at Route 18 in Medina Township.
The sheriff’s statement didn’t say whether Alexander was armed with a weapon, or specify what exactly prompted officers to open fire. “Multiple gunshots were fired in an officer-involved shooting” in which Alexander was involved and no officers were injured, the sheriff’s office said.
