The shooting was reported in the 600 block of Whitmore Avenue at approximately 10:18 p.m.
Dayton Police Department Sergeant Derek Swiger told News Center 7 that a male sustained non-life-threatening injuries in the shooting.
“We have very limited suspect information at this time,” Swiger said.
News Center 7 crews saw crime scene tape blocking the intersection and several Dayton police cruisers on the scene.
A person told he was coming home when he saw a police presence in his neighborhood.
“I was just returning from work, and then I heard when I was going to, like, a different route here. There’s a lot of, like, blockades around here. Like, wait, what happened here? It was, I thought there was, at first, I thought was an accident, but once I know, parked my car back to my house and saw that it was around this corner here, so I noticed that there was more going on here.”
Another neighbor told News Center 7 that he hopes his security cameras can help investigators.
“I may have security cameras at my home that record everything with some you know that links to the authorities, but you know, in case anything you know affects my home and as well as my family, then I will defend myself.”
