His daughter and her mother drove him to Miami Valley Hospital at about midnight with what hospital staff called a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to the ride side of his chest.
The man told police he didn’t see the shooter, but other witnesses told police they saw a suspect with gold teeth and short hair leave 69 Benning and fire six to nine rounds at the victim and his daughter before running behind the residence.
Another witness told police that the woman who attacked the victim’s daughter had accused her of trying to take her kids or reporting her house to Children Services Bureau and that members of the gang Dayton View Hustlers frequent 69 Benning.
An evidence crew found a .45-caliber bullet casing close to the parking spot where the victim was shot and found six more .380-caliber bullet casings around the vehicle, according to police reports.
No arrests were made.
