DASHCAM: Ohio State Highway Patrol trooper shot during traffic stop in Findlay

OSHP says trooper Josef Brobst, who is with the Findlay post, conducted a traffic stop of a black 2016 Chevy Suburban with Michigan registration for a speed violation around 11:05 p.m. near milepost 160 in Hancock County.



During the traffic stop, a struggle ensued between Brobst and Robert Hathorn, who was driving the Chevy Suburban.



Police say the struggle involved Brobst's service weapon that resulted in Brobst sustaining a gunshot wound. The Ohio Attorney General's Office says Hathorn shot Brobst.



Brobst was taken to Blanchard Valley Hospital with serious, but non-life-threatening injuries. Police say he was shot in his lower extremities. Brobst has since been released from the hospital.



Hathorn is charged with felonious assault, aggravated robbery, tampering with evidence, two counts of having weapons while under disability and failure to comply with order or signal.



Hathorn will be arraigned in Hancock County Common Pleas court at a date not yet set.
