SLIDESHOW: Suspects In Xenia Robbery, Shooting
While this incident was happening, a vehicle passed an unmarked police cruiser at a high-rate of speed and driving erratically on Cincinnati Avenue. The unmarked cruiser with two officers in it followed the vehicle, and while the officers were following the vehicle another car came up behind them and fired shots at the unmarked car.
Police said the officers returned fire and the suspects then fled into the Villa De Marquis Apartments on Newport Road. The officers were able to determine that the suspects fled into an apartment.
The officers were not injured during the exchange of gunfire. Officers established a perimeter and called the Greene County SWAT team. Neighboring apartments were evacuated.
Resident Dustin Colquhaun said, "It was crazy. Cops started pounding on our door and we opened it to see seven to eight SWAT members. We knew something was wrong."
The SWAT team confirmed that there were subjects in the apartment and tried to communicate with them. After several attempts to contact the men, SWAT officers fired gas into the apartment, and about 15 minutes later, four suspects came out and were taken into custody.
Xenia Police Captain Scott Anger said, "We're lucky no officers were hurt. Fortunately our officers all did a good job."
Xenia police said they continue to investigate the shots that were fired at the undercover officers. The suspects are Leron Jolly, 19, Patrick E. Davis, 19, Xavier Dean Alexander, 19 and Shareef Walker, 19.
These suspects are all originally from the Detroit, Michigan area. They were each charged with inducing panic and obstructing official business
The investigation involving the shooting is continuing and additional charges will be sought pending results of the investigation and laboratory testing of evidence that was collected at the scene.
