Two men were killed and another critically injured Thursday afternoon in a triple shooting in Dayton.

Officers were dispatched around 3:50 p.m. to the 900 block of Cleverly Road, where officers found a 20-year-old man suffering from numerous gunshot wounds, said Dayton police Lt. Steven Bauer.

“Officers then located two males, ages 18 and 25, deceased in a vehicle that was crashed nearby,” Bauer said.

The 20-year-old man was taken to a local hospital in critical condition. His condition was reported to be stable as of Friday, Bauer said.

The names of the victims have not been released.

A 21-year-old man was arrested for having weapons under disability and an 18-year-old man was after he darted under crime scene tape during the investigation, Bauer said. He faces charges of misconduct in an emergency, obstructing official business, resisting arrest and failure to disclose personal information.

This shooting is nearby to the scene of a fatal shooting on July 7, where a 33-year-old man was found dead on the front lawn of Residence Park Elementary School on Oakridge Drive.
