LANCASTER, Ohio — On New Year’s Day, a shooting was reported at J.D. Henderson’s Sports Lounge at 204 South Columbus Street in Lancaster at around 1:07 a.m.
Police arrived at the scene and identified witnesses, as well as collected information and several spent shell casings. They identified a potential suspect and a vehicle that had fled the scene.
Authorities say later, at around 1:33 a.m., officers received a report of a domestic disturbance at a residence on Lane Street. When they arrived, they saw a male and female arguing, and the male and female fled into the residence as officers approached.
The female later came out of the residence with two juveniles, and the Lancaster Police Special Response Team secured the exterior of the residence while the male suspect remained inside.
After several hours, the suspect, Anthony Deshaun Jeter, 29, Columbus, reports read, left the residence and resisted arrest, receiving minor injuries during the process. Jeter was treated by Lancaster Fire Department medics.
Jeter is currently incarcerated at the Fairfield County Jail, charged with aggravated menacing, having a weapon under disability, and improper handling/discharging of a weapon.
