Man dead after attack with machete, car at Dayton park

“It appears a machete and car were used as weapons in this incident,” he said.

The suspect was still at the park and was arrested there, Johns said.

He was booked into the Montgomery County Jail early Friday but has not been formally charged.

“The suspect and victim did know each other, so this was not a random attack. There was apparently some sort of disagreement between the two leading up to the incident,” Johns said.

The victim’s name has not yet been released by the Montgomery County Coroner’s Office pending family notification.
