On April 22, police were dispatched to Setters Volleyball Club on reports of a fight in the parking lot. Brown, a security guard, was found unconscious outside on the ground. He was transported to Miami Valley Hospital where he died from his injuries two days later.

An investigation, including surveillance video, showed that Fountain “sucker-punched” Brown in the head.

Police said Brown was trying to break up the fight at the time he was struck.

Fountain is currently booked in the Montgomery County Jail. His bond is set at $1 million. He is scheduled to appear in court for arraignment on May 10.
