Anthony Wilson, a 38-year-old African American man from Dayton, Ohio, was shot in the head on May 20, 2018, and died of his injuries the next day. He was found in a home on Brooklyn Avenue and taken to the hospital, where he succumbed to the wound. The Montgomery County Coroner’s Office initially listed the manner of death as pending while homicide detectives investigated.

Detectives determined Wilson was an innocent bystander struck by a high-caliber round. Police cordoned off the area as they gathered evidence. No arrests or suspects have been named and the case remains open. Wilson is survived by his daughter Ayonne Ja-Neal Harris, his son Anthony Richard Wilson Jr., his parents Anthony Richard Varner and Diana Lynn Wilson, and his brothers Byron and Devon Phelps; his funeral was held May 31, 2018, at Thomas Funeral Home in Trotwood.
