Police killings
2013-2020

Samuel Dubose

Male, Black

Date of the incident: 7/19/2015

Cincinnati, Hamilton, OH
Rice St and Valencia St

Police initially said that an officer pulled DuBose over for a routine traffic stop which escalated into some type of altercation, and that DuBose dragged an officer with his vehicle for a distance before the officer fired. That account was later disproven by body camera footage released by Cincinnati prosecutor Joseph Deters, who announced that murder charges were being filed against University of Cincinnati police officer Ray Tensing.
