Fuller and his youngest son had a fun Sunday planned.
“I sent them to the store while I was getting dressed. We were about to take our son to the skate park,” Sawvell said.
Less than 5 minutes after they left the house, Sawvell got a call from her son.
“Told me that his dad was shot and thought I needed to get over here as quickly as possible, that he was dead,” she said.
Her son said it happened so quickly.
“My husband made my son walk in front of him, because when he came out of the door, there was one standing on each side of the door,” she said. “My son said his ears started ringing, and that he heard the shot. His ears were ringing, and then he turned around, and his dad was on the ground.”
News Center 7 obtained court documents that show Dayton police have arrested three of the four teenagers they believe are involved.
All three are facing murder charges.

In court on Thursday, Judge Helen Wallace made it clear that police believe a 17-year-old fired the shots that killed Fuller.
“You are charged with 4 counts of murder, aggravated robbery, and two counts of felonious assault,” Judge Wallace said in court.
Prosecutors told the judge that the teen shouldn’t be released. Sawvell said she agrees.
“I feel like they should be tried as adults,” she said.
The judge agreed, ordering the 17-year-old to be held in the juvenile justice center until his next court appearance.
Sawvell said she plans to be there.
