DAYTON -- A woman called police to say that a bullet was fired into her daughter's second-floor bedroom while she was in the room.
Dayton Police responded at 9:55 p.m. Sunday to the 700 block of Burwood Avenue on the report of shots fired. A woman said she heard three loud gunshots before her daughter ran downstairs to say that something shot into her bedroom.
The mother went upstairs and found a bullet hole below her daughter's window, and the bullet, later identified as a 9 mm round, on the floor a few inches from the hole in the wall.
After their investigation at this property, police said a woman from next door approached them and said her house also had been shot at. Police said there were two more holes in the second-floor exterior wall and one of those bullets traveled through the first bedroom and into a second. A third bullet hole was discovered on the first floor.
As police were leaving that second scene, they reported that two black males approached them and said that they had been shot at earlier that night after getting off the bus nearby. They said they were walking on the sidewalk near the Burwood shooting scene when a black car pulled up and a make got out and starting shooting at them.
The males said they believed the male with the gun was trying to rob them. One of the males told police they had returned to pick up a cell phone he had dropped while running away.
A few hours later, about 2 a.m., another resident in the vicinity of the original gunshots reported hearing gunshots near her apartment complex. The woman said she found a bullet hole in her son's bedroom, which traveled into the closet.
Police were unable to find the actual bullet, however.
