Andre Harrington, 52, was indicted Thursday on two counts of felonious assault and one count of having weapons while under disability, according to court records.

Dayton officers got to the apartment and a man was yelling from a window saying a man was shot in the hallway of the apartment.

At the apartment, police heard noises and then saw Harrington running from the apartment.

“They stopped him and found that he had just discarded a .22 rifle,” court records show.

The victim was able to tell police he was shot in the upper right torso, but refused to tell investigators who shot him.

Harrington is not in custody, according to jail records. He is scheduled to be arraigned on May 26, according to court records.
