Reinaldo Gomez Taylor, a 33-year-old Hispanic man, was shot and killed in an ambush-style attack in the parking lot of the Gettysburg Plaza shopping center in Dayton, Ohio, on May 29, 2022. The shooting happened at about 3:20 a.m.; police reported hearing roughly 30 shots. Taylor was taken to Miami Valley Hospital and died shortly after arrival.

Investigators say Quinn Arthur Mattison, 27, of Trotwood, was identified in the case and later arrested. Mattison was indicted on three counts of murder, two counts of felonious assault, and one count of having weapons under disability related to a prior felony drug conviction; he was arrested June 30, 2022, and held on $1 million bail in the Montgomery County Jail. Multiple witnesses and video surveillance existed, but police reported limited cooperation from the public during the probe.

Taylor was known in Dayton as a rapper and is remembered by family and friends for his music and vibrant personality. If anyone witnessed the shooting or has information that hasn’t been shared with investigators, please come forward.
