  • 2018 Ohio 5033

Syllabus

Motion to suppress Terry stop reasonable suspicion. The trial court did not err in granting a motion to suppress evidence obtained during an investigatory stop of a legally parked vehicle. In evaluating whether reasonable suspicion of criminal activity existed to support the stop, the trial court heard testimony from the officer, who initiated the stop. The trial court found that a single overdose at a house down the street did not support the officer's testimony that the car was parked in a known drug area.
