The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation is leading the probe, while the Clark County Sheriff's office will have an internal inquiry. Eight officers are on paid leave, normal procedure after a fatal police shooting.
Authorities on Sunday identified the suspect as 57-year-old Michael Ferryman. Deputy Suzanne Hopper was shot dead as she collected evidence at an Enon Beach mobile home park after a report of gunshots.
The Springfield News-Sun reports she is the first Clark County officer killed on duty since 1978.
