Ex-Officer Adam Coy Convicted of Murder in Andre Hill Shooting

The former Columbus police officer faces at least 15 years in prison for the 2020 killing of an unarmed Black man.

Adam Coy, a former Columbus police officer, was found guilty of murder, felonious assault, and reckless homicide for fatally shooting Andre Hill.
Andre Hill, an unarmed Black man, was shot four times while holding a cellphone and keys in a garage in December 2020.
The incident led to the Columbus City Council passing 'Andre's Law,' mandating officers render immediate medical aid after use-of-force incidents.
Coy's history with the police department included over three dozen complaints, including a dozen related to use of force.
Columbus reached a $10 million settlement with Hill's family, the largest in the city's history, following public outrage over the shooting.
