Police was dispatched to the scene just before noon on a report of a male who was shot while in a car, which was parked in front of a store said Lt. Mark Ponichtera of the Dayton Police Department.

The victim, who has not been identified, is in his mid-20s, Ponichtera said. Homicide detectives are on the scene, and they are interviewing witnesses, he said, noting that the victim’s vehicle will be towed for processing.

The victim’s body was taken to the Montgomery County Corner’s Office.
