An unidentified Hamilton County sheriff’s deputy was struck and killed while directing traffic near the University of Cincinnati, where a graduation ceremony was taking place. The driver was the father of an 18-year-old who had been shot and killed by police the previous day during a pursuit of suspected car thieves. The Cincinnati Police Department is investigating the incident, and a moment of silence was observed in honor of the deputy, who had recently retired but continued his service in a special capacity.
