Emily Gene Stovall, 23, was one of two people killed in a double shooting in Dayton on November 7, 2024. The deaths occurred shortly before 1 p.m. at a residence on the 1600 block of Russet Avenue; both Stovall and 25-year-old Jacob Osterhaus suffered gunshot wounds and were pronounced dead at the scene by the Montgomery County Coroner’s Office.

A 911 caller reported a woman lying on the sidewalk and calling for help, but didn’t see a shooter or anyone fleeing. Major Jason Hall of the Dayton police said everyone present at the location was accounted for and investigators were not actively searching for suspects at that time. Police did not confirm whether a weapon was recovered. The couple’s young son was taken from the scene with only minimal belongings; family members expressed deep grief and concern for him. No arrests have been announced as the investigation continues.

If anyone knew Emily, Jacob, or their routines on Russet Avenue that afternoon, please share information that might help the investigation.
