Officers are still outside the house, and have been seen canvassing the area and trying to track possible suspects with a police K9.
Wogaman Middle School is not far from the house involved in the shooting, in the 900 block of McArthur Avenue.
“Wogaman entered a shelter-in-place under the advisement of Dayton Police at approximately 10:40 a.m. due to police activity occurring in the area. The shelter-in-place was lifted at approximately 10:58 a.m. after police said it was safe to do so. At no point did any police activity take place on school property, and at no point were students in any danger,” a statement from Dayton Public Schools Superintendent Elizabeth Lolli read.
Although police were initially dispatched on a potential hostage situation, the suspects had left by the time officers arrived.
Police entered the house to search for potential victims, but police did not find anyone shot inside the house, Dayton police spokesman James Rider said.
The incident is under investigation by the Dayton Police Department’s violent offenders unit.
