Police said Jadarrius Rose, 23, failed to stop his commercial semitruck for an inspection during a “lengthy” vehicle pursuit on July 4, the outlet reported.
“I parked the truck, and I was about to comply with them, but they all had their guns drawn out for whatever reason,” Rose told the 911 dispatcher while driving, according to the audio recordings of the call, per CNN.
The 911 dispatcher advised Rose, “You need to pull over. You’re going to get yourself in more trouble than you’re already in.”
“I don’t know why they’re trying to kill me,” Rose said. The dispatcher replied, “They’re not trying to kill you.”
“Yes they are,” said Rose. “I do not feel safe with stopping.”

However, the police K-9 was deployed and attacked Rose, who could be heard through screams, “Get it off.” It appears not all the officers heard the command, as one officer said in the video after the incident, “Was I not loud enough?”
Rose was later released from police custody on July 7, but more evidence is being collected to determine if he will still face the fourth-degree felony charge, the Ross County Prosecutor’s Office told CNN.
Circleville Mayor Don McIlroy identified the police officer who deployed the K-9 as Ryan Speakman on Monday and told CNN that he has since been placed on paid administrative leave.
“In compliance with the Circleville Police Department Policy, a Use of Force Review Board was convened immediately and is reviewing the incident,” the statement read, with findings to be released the week of July 31, CNN reports.
