Belcher is accused of a shooting the woman around 5:20 p.m. July 12.
Dayton police found her in the 500 block of North Irwin Street after a 911 caller said there was a woman covered in blood asking for help who walked to the area of the North Irwin Street and Pruden Avenue intersection.
The woman was shot in the left eye. She gave police a description of her assailant and identified him as Belcher, according to an affidavit filed in Dayton Municipal Court.
A different woman told police that a man, later identified as Belcher, came to an East Fifth Street residence looking for the woman who was later shot, the affidavit read. She told him the woman was in her car and heard him leave shortly after, she told police.
Court documents indicated the pair have a history, which the gunshot victim claimed led to the shooting.
Belcher, who is in the Montgomery County Jail on $50,000 bail, has a lengthy criminal history and has been sentenced to prison at least five times. He most recently was released on June 30, the prosecutor said.
