A portion of Interstate 480 in Cuyahoga County now carries the name of a Euclid police officer who was killed in the line of duty.

Gov. Mike DeWine held a ceremonial bill signing Monday at the Ohio Department of Transportation's Sign Shop in Columbus to formally recognize Senate Bill 334, which designates the stretch of I-480 between Lancaster Drive and I-77 as the "Officer Jacob J. Derbin Memorial Highway."

Derbin, 23, was shot and killed on May 11, 2024, while responding to a domestic violence call. He had been with the Euclid Police Department for less than a year at the time of his death. He was a 2018 graduate of Cuyahoga Heights High School and had served in the U.S. Army Reserve before joining the police force. He was engaged to be married that same summer.
