MOTION TO SUPPRESS – CUSTODIAL INTERROGATION – MIRANDA – R.C. 2935.03: Where defendant voluntarily arrived on the scene and approached the officers, was not handcuffed, was questioned on a sidewalk outside his home, and voluntarily answered officers' questions, and where the officers did not engage in coercive tactics, intimidation, or threaten defendant, defendant was not subject to a custodial interrogation. Where defendant was not subject to a custodial interrogation, Miranda warnings were not required and the trial court did not err in denying defendant's motion to suppress.
