David Simmons, 15, was found fatally shot inside a bedroom of an apartment in Trotwood, Ohio, on April 8, 2023. The Montgomery County Coroner identified the victim as David Simmons of Trotwood; the shooting occurred late Saturday morning and prompted an immediate police response.

A 14-year-old boy was taken into custody and transported to the Montgomery County Juvenile Detention Center. Authorities charged the juvenile with reckless homicide, a charge that indicates the shooting is being treated as resulting from reckless conduct rather than an intentional killing. The case has drawn attention locally to youth violence and gun safety.

Anyone with information about what happened that morning or who knew David is asked to come forward and share what they know.
