UPDATE @ 3:30 p.m.: (July 6):
The Montgomery County Coroner’s Office has ruled Adriaunna Jackson’s death a homicide. She died of a gunshot wound to the head, officials said.
UPDATE @ 2:30 p.m.:
The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office is still gathering information about the shooting that led to one fatality, said Capt. Jeremy Roy, commander of the Harrison Twp. sheriff substation. The office is working with Dayton police and the like to get more information, he said, adding that the sheriff’s office did not get any calls about the shooting.
Plush has been an ongoing concern for Harrison Twp. officials for several years, and multiple attempts to revoke the business’ liquor license or to prevent a renewal have been unsuccessful, Roy said Friday.
Problems at the club continue to get worse each year, he said, noting that the sheriff’s office has had 93 service calls there since Jan. 1. Some of the service calls were for routine checks, but others were for shots fired, disorderly crowd, large fights and homicide, Roy said.
Prior to Friday morning’s shooting, someone called with concerns early Thursday morning, saying there was an abduction at Plush Club. Deputies checked into that call and didn’t find anything, Roy said.
The parties involved in that incident returned to the club Thursday night, leading to Friday’s shooting, Roy said.
Neighbors are fed up with the violence at the club, he said.
“They’re sick of shots fired at night, they're sick of big fights. When there are fights, they're leaving the parking lot at high rates of speed,” Roy said.
UPDATE @ 9:20 a.m.: One of the two victims wounded in the shooting at North Main Street and East Siebenthaler Avenue has died, according to the Montgomery County Coroner's Office.
Adriaunna Jackson, 21, of Dayton was identified as the fatality. Her cause of death has not been officially ruled, according to the coroner’s office.
No condition information was available for the second victim, 22-year-old Keysaun Harris, who was taken to Miami Valley Hospital.
