Ward will be arraigned Tuesday in Montgomery County Common Pleas Court on two counts of murder and three counts of felonious assault, each with three-year firearm specifications, according to a grand jury report.
According to court documents, just before 11:30 p.m. Dec. 11, police responded to the 1100 block of Leo Street on a report of a man lying in the street. Newell was a passenger in a vehicle and fell out into the street after he was shot.
Surveillance video showed that a man, later identified as Ward, shot into the vehicle multiple times, before he fled in a Dodge Charger, police said.
Ward is in the Montgomery County Jail, where he has been held since his Monday arrest by Dayton police.
