Two years after Ta'Kiya Young was shot and killed by a Blendon Township police officer, the officer's murder case remains unresolved.

Driving the news: Sunday was the second anniversary of Young's death. Last week, her family filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Officer Connor Grubb.

Catch up quick: Young, 21, was shopping at a Kroger on Sunbury Road when an employee accused her of stealing alcohol and flagged down two nearby officers.

• Body camera footage showed the officers approaching her car and telling her to get out, with Grubb standing in front and pointing a gun.
• Young then accelerated forward toward Grubb, who fired a shot that struck her in the chest. She died after being transported to St. Ann's Hospital.
• Young was pregnant, and her unborn daughter, due that November, did not survive.

Nearly a year later, Grubb was indicted by a Franklin County grand jury on counts of murder, involuntary manslaughter and felonious assault.

• He pleaded not guilty, posted a $20,000 bond and was on paid administrative leave until this summer.

Between the lines: Two years after the shooting, Grubb has still not stood trial.

• His first trial date was set for last month, but a judge accepted his defense's request to delay.
• It's now scheduled for Nov. 3 in Franklin County Common Pleas Court after a judge denied a request to move it.

Zoom in: The wrongful death suit alleges Grubb's "reckless and intentional conduct" violated Young's rights and caused her "preventable" death.

• The suit also names the Kroger Corporation and an unidentified Kroger employee as defendants.
• "There was no immediate threat to any officer, no weapon found, and no justification for the use of deadly force," the suit reads. "Ms. Young was executed for a minor and unverified shoplifting allegation, a tragic and inexcusable example of police misconduct and abuse of power."

Attorneys representing Grubb could not be immediately reached for comment.

New survey data shared exclusively with Axios shows how attitudes toward phones in schools have shifted drastically in the space of a single generation, as educators grapple with distractions and teens' wellbeing.

Why it matters: Ohio children are heading back to class, and just a few months remain before state-mandated cellphone bans start on Jan. 1.

State of play: Ohio districts will be required to adopt a policy prohibiting cellphones "during the instructional day."

• There are exceptions, including for emergencies, "student learning" or to "monitor or address a health concern."
• Currently, schools must have a policy of some kind limiting usage, but prohibition isn't required, creating a patchwork of rules.

Between the lines: It's a divisive topic and readers sent us lots of opinions last year.

What the parent survey says

Chapman's Eat Market, one of the city's most adored restaurants, officially shut its doors Saturday night.

Dining the news: Husband-and-wife owners B.J. Lieberman and Bronwyn Haines said on social media that they chose to end their story "on a high note" after a five-year lease ended.

• While it's a major blow to our culinary scene, Lieberman told WCMH-TV "all parties must end."
• Lieberman and Haines will continue operating Ginger Rabbit and Metsi's, a new Italian eatery.

Other local restaurants we've said farewell to this year:

Columbus has gained a fan over 9,000 miles away, after local Reddit sleuths helped an Australian woman track down her iPad that went missing two years ago.

Catch up quick: The woman from Sydney posted on the Columbus subreddit last week, after "Find My iPad" unexpectedly pinged her device in the Hilliard area.

• Redditors quickly realized it was likely at e-Cycle, a local device recycling company. One user who works there helped track it down using a serial number.
• The company tells us they're now in touch with the owner and plan to ship it back.

The intrigue: The woman suspects she lost it on a plane during "a journey from Brazil-LA-Sydney" and has never even been to Ohio. But that may change.

What she's saying: "I LOVE OHIO and now I want to come visit … and my faith in humanity is restored!"

Another Redditor quipped: "You're lucky it ended up in Columbus. We don't have much better to do and are very nice people."
