David S. Danley Jr., 21, was shot and killed at the Salem View Apartments on Central Avenue in Dayton on October 20, 2012. Officers responding to reports of gunfire arrived about 6:40 p.m. and found two men with gunshot wounds. Danley was taken to Miami Valley Hospital and pronounced dead shortly after arrival; the other victim survived with non-life-threatening injuries.

Investigators say the shooting occurred during an attempted robbery but note there were no signs of forced entry. Police believed the victims may have known the gunman; Sergeant Larry Tolpin reported a struggle and a brief argument before at least one shot was fired. The suspect fled after the shooting and, as of this writing, the killing remains unsolved.

Anyone who was at or near Salem View Apartments that evening or who has information about the altercation or the person who fled is asked to contact law enforcement.
