Not much detail in the reporting at this time other than the armed citizen lived above the cell phone store and noticed the middle of the night burglary.
HARRISON TOWNSHIP — The suspect in an attempted burglary at a cellphone store in Harrison Township early Tuesday morning is dead.

Around 1:40 a.m., deputies were dispatched to a shooting at the Boost Mobile in the 3800 block of North Dixie Drive, the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office said.

According to the sheriff’s office, the investigation showed a man and juvenile female were breaking into the business. A resident in an upstairs apartment confronted the male suspect, who was already inside the business attempting to steal items.

In a 911 call obtained by News Center 7, the caller reports an armed robbery at the business.

“I’ve got an armed robbery, there’s a guy downstairs,” the caller said.

The resident fired shots, striking the suspect who fled the scene.

The suspect drove to a residence in Dayton where he was transported to a local hospital. He later died as a result of his injuries, the sheriff’s office said.

The incident remains under investigation at this time by the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office.
