Gillilan “did cause the death” of Kinser, Miamisburg police stated in court records this week.
“Per phone records received pursuant to search warrants, it was learned that Chaz Gillilan left Columbus, came to Dayton with others and then came to the area of the homicide, at the time of the homicide,” Miamisburg Detective Sgt. Jeff Muncy stated in court records filed Tuesday.
Gillilan “made incriminating admissions and statements to multiple subjects regarding his involvement in this homicide,” those same records show.
Police announced Wednesday that Gillilan is in the Belmont County Jail without bond in the slaying of Kinser. They said he is expected to be transferred to Montgomery County to face charges in the death of the teen, who authorities said was killed in a home invasion at a North First Street apartment about from the police department.

“The investigation revealed at least two subjects entered Kinser’s home and shot and killed him,” Muncy said in Miamisburg Municipal Court records.
A 14-year-old also was wounded in the invasion, but later recovered, authorities said.
According to police department officials, the Kinser slaying remains under investigation and police do not anticipate any further comment until the grand jury proceedings have been completed.
