Someone walked into Kettering Health Dayton with a gunshot wound in the early hours of Sunday morning, triggering a police investigation that, as of this week, still hasn't nailed down exactly where the shooting took place. Trotwood police officers were notified at about 5:08 a.m. that a person with a gunshot injury had arrived at the hospital, and the wound was described as non-life-threatening.
According to WHIO, the individual walked into the hospital with the injury early Sunday morning. The outlet reported that a Montgomery County dispatcher placed the incident near the intersection of State Route 49 and Hoover Avenue around 5 a.m. That detail lines up with reporting from Eagle Dayton, which said the victim told police the shooting happened in that same area, though investigators had not independently confirmed the location.
Not everyone has the location pinned to the same spot, though. Dayton 24/7 Now reported that officers believe the shooting occurred near State Route 48 and Hoover Avenue, while other reports cited State Route 49 and Hoover Avenue. The discrepancy remains unresolved, and investigators are still working to confirm exactly where the shooting took place.
Police Still Withholding Key Details
Trotwood police have not released the victim's identity, nor have they shared any information about a suspect. The Trotwood Police Department is continuing to investigate the circumstances that led up to the shooting, and officials have said they will share more information as it becomes available.
Eagle Dayton's reporting noted plainly that the shooting remains under investigation by the Trotwood Police Department, with no suspect details released at this time. Dayton 24/7 Now said it is working to learn more about what happened as the case develops.
