Ohio Supreme Court rules "warning shots" as self-defense, overturning Tyler Wilson's conviction.
Ohio Supreme Court rules that "warning shots" can be considered self-defense, overturning Tyler Wilson's conviction for felonious assault. The court stated that the statute only requires force against another person for self-defense, with no further specification of mental state. This decision could expand gun rights and make it easier for people to assert self-defense in criminal cases.
