COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Tinnes family said it has been an emotional and heartbreaking few days as they struggle to make sense of an unimaginable loss.

Corey died after a crash involving a Columbus police cruiser on Dec. 7.

“I just can’t imagine what he went through in the last moments,” Grayson said.
