Matthew Enmen, a 42-year-old man from Amanda, Ohio, tragically died on December 3, 2022, from an apparent gunshot wound. The incident occurred during a dispute with his brother, Mickey Enmen, who is 39 years old. According to Mickey, Matthew kicked down his bedroom door and attacked him, threatening to kill him. In response, Mickey claimed he shot his brother in self-defense.
Mickey Enmen was arrested and charged with aggravated murder by the Fairfield County Sheriff's Office. However, the case against Mickey was later dismissed without prejudice by Fairfield County prosecutors, who cited the need for further investigation into the self-defense claim. The judge ordered Mickey's bond to be released and him to be freed from custody while the investigation continues.
The Fairfield County Sheriff's Office is actively working on the case, and detectives are continuing to gather evidence and interview witnesses. The family's conflicting accounts of the incident have added complexity to the investigation.
This tragic event has left the community in shock, and the investigation remains ongoing as authorities work to determine the exact circumstances surrounding Matthew Enmen's death.
