Custodial Death Report :: Page 6 of 7 --- PAGE BREAK --- At approximately 7:13 PM, Officer Conley was dispatched to a noise complaint at 2603 Mayview Drive in 6B40’s beat. Upon arrival, Officer Conley spoke with several neighbors and identified an occupied white Infinity sedan as the basis for the noise complainant according to neighbors. Officer Conley identified the sole occupant of the white Infinity as Jarrad Hill by his Texas ID card. While conducting his scene investigations, Officer Conley smelled the odor of marijuana coming from the interior of Hill’s vehicle and asked Hill to exit the vehicle. Hill, now legally detained based on the suspected presence of marijuana in his possession, exited the vehicle, at which time Officer Conley advised Hill he was going to check to make sure Hill was not in possession of any weapons. As Officer Conley grabbed Hill’s shirt to check his waist band, Hill tried to run away. Officer Conley did not let go of Hill’s shirt and told him to stop. As a struggle ensued, Officer Conley observed that Hill had a pistol on his right hip in a holster. Hill reached for and grabbed his pistol, and Officer Conley, upon seeing this, quickly pushed off of Hill, drew his pistol, and fired approximately three times at Hill believing that Hill was about to try and shoot him. Officer Conley immediately radioed for backup and attempted to render aid to Hill by giving him gauze and instructing him to pack his bullet wound. Officer Conley maintained his position with pistol pointed at Hill until backup arrived because Officer Conley did not know if Hill was still in possession of his pistol. Hill was transported to Ben Taub Hospital by the Houston Fire Department, and after arriving at the hospital, suffered a cardiac arrest. Hill was pronounced dead at the hospital. Hill had one gunshot wound to the left side of his chest. Hill has several criminal convictions including possession of marijuana, possession of a controlled substance, evading arrest, unlawfully carrying a weapon, unlawful possession of a weapon by a felon, and criminal trespass. Per the Mental Health Division, Hill has not been handled for any mental illness related issues. Officer Conley was equipped with a body worn camera which was activated from the time of his arrival to the original call throughout the entire incident. Custodial Death Report :: Page 7 of 7
