Dayton police dispatched around 10:15 p.m. to the 40 block of South Monmouth Street on a report of a shooting found a 22-year-old Dayton man who had been shot outside a house.
Witnesses told police that the victim arrived because of a dispute involving his family and began fighting with another man when Williamson approached them and started shooting at the victim, striking him two times, according to an affidavit filed in Dayton Municipal Court.
“Mr. Williamson then began running away and accidentally shot himself in the foot,” the affidavit stated.
