Michael D. Cox was 25 when he was fatally shot on August 10, 2016, on Oxford Avenue in Dayton, Ohio. The Montgomery County Coroner’s Office recorded multiple gunshot wounds as the cause of death. Cox was one of three people killed in the same incident; the other victims were Tammy Cox, 53, and Jasper Taylor, 74.

Police identified and charged 61-year-old Muhammad Shabazz Ali in connection with the shootings at 35 Oxford Avenue. Reports say Ali was apprehended after a brief chase and charged with numerous counts related to the incident, and that witnesses and neighbors described prior altercations between him and the victims. Ali’s criminal history noted a 1988 voluntary manslaughter conviction for which he served over 20 years.
