Dayton police and medics were dispatched around 12:05 a.m. Feb. 10 on reports of a stabbing at the 3900 block of Cornell Woods Drive.
Officers arrived to find a woman at the front door bleeding from her neck and blood throughout the apartment, according to Dayton Municipal Court records.
A man at the scene told police he woke up to his brother, Owensby, beating the woman with a baseball bat.
He reportedly pulled Owensby off the woman and then found a knife on the floor. Owensby fled out the patio doors.
Hospital staff reported the woman, who suffered critical, life-threatening injuries, had more than 30 stab wounds on her neck, head and back, as well as defensive wounds on her hands, according to court records. A small piece of the knife was reportedly lodged in her brain.
Owensby turned himself in to police on Feb. 12. He had cuts to his right hand and palm, according to court documents.
He is held on $200,000 bail in the Montgomery County Jail.
