La’Peetra Dawson was 37 and lived in Dayton, Ohio. On November 14, 2018 she was sitting on a couch inside her home on Millicent Avenue when a vehicle drove past and fired several shots. One bullet penetrated the wall and struck Dawson, killing her.

An 18-year-old Dayton man, Jayland Redd, was indicted on murder and other firearm-related charges in connection with Dawson’s death. Redd was arrested on November 27, 2018, and arraigned on homicide-related charges on December 11, 2018. Prosecutors said Redd was also involved in a high-speed chase with Huber Heights police and other jurisdictions on November 26, 2018; it was not immediately clear whether he faced additional charges from that pursuit.

Anyone who knew La’Peetra Dawson or has information about the shooting on Millicent Avenue is asked to share what they know.
