DAYTON -- A triple shooting is under investigation in Dayton.
Police say three men were shot in the 4100 block of Merryfield Avenue just before 10:00 Tuesday night (January 21, 2015). After the trio was hit they all took off.
Police say right now they are not sure what the motive was behind the shooting.
One of the men is in critical condition, so homicide detectives have been called in. At last check, the other two men are in stable condition.
Police say the area has been quiet lately but are checking on suspicious drug-related activity nearby.
During the shooting, bullets went through the wall of a neighboring apartment building. When police went inside that building they found evidence of drugs or an illegal liquor establishment.
Right now, they are investigating that establishment as well as the shooting.
We will bring you more information as it comes into the newsroom.
