Ryan O’Neill – South Bend Police Department

On June 16, 2019, Sergeant O’Neill fatally shot Eric Logan, a Black man, during a confrontation. O’Neill claimed Logan refused orders to drop a knife. The incident was not recorded by O’Neill’s body camera, leading to protests and calls for police reforms. O’Neill resigned from the department in July 2019, citing stress and media attention.
