Randy Tillman, aged 54, was killed on January 27, 2014, in Dayton, Ohio. He was shot while sitting in a car near the intersection of Haberer and Burwood avenues at approximately 3:30 p.m. on that Monday. Police described the incident as possibly linked to a drug deal that went wrong. A woman who was in the car with Tillman was detained and questioned, but no further details were released about her involvement at that time.
Tillman was among two victims killed in separate incidents on the same day in Dayton, with the other victim being a 22-year-old man named Karll Williams, who was found shot on a porch later that evening.
The Dayton Police Department continues to seek answers regarding Tillman's death. Authorities have not established any direct connection between the two homicides that occurred that day. Despite these incidents, police officials highlighted that overall violent crime in the city had been decreasing, noting that the cold weather in January had contributed to a reduction in crime generally. The case remains under investigation as detectives look for leads and possible connections to drug activity in the area. Anyone with information regarding the incident has been encouraged to come forward to assist in resolving the case.
