Cleveland, Ohio – A Cleveland officer was killed on Tuesday morning when a car hit him on west I-90 near Warren Road.

The unidentified officer was working at a collision scene between a firetruck and a van. A white Toyota Camry then barreled through, striking the Cleveland officer, and immediately fleeing the scene.
