Matthew Enmen, 42, of Amanda, Ohio, died on December 3, 2022, from an apparent gunshot wound sustained during a dispute with his brother, 39-year-old Mickey Enmen. According to Mickey, Matthew kicked down his bedroom door, attacked him and threatened to kill him; Mickey says he shot Matthew in self-defense. Mickey was arrested and charged with aggravated murder by the Fairfield County Sheriff’s Office.

Fairfield County prosecutors later dismissed the charge without prejudice, saying the self-defense claim required further investigation; a judge ordered Mickey’s bond released and he was freed from custody while detectives continue gathering evidence and interviewing witnesses. The family’s conflicting accounts have added complexity to the inquiry.

Detectives are still investigating to determine the exact circumstances of Matthew’s death. If anyone has information about the incident or witnessed events on December 3, 2022, please come forward to assist the investigation.
