A special grand jury in Summit County Common Pleas Court on Monday returned a no-bill, which means the jurors found the actions of the officers were justified. The jurors heard five days of evidence and testimony and began their deliberations Monday.

The officers, whose names have been withheld by the city, weren’t released after the grand jury’s decision. A spokesman for Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost said the attorney general’s office publicly names only officers already identified by their own departments.
