The house in question is the same house that was listed as Joe Mixon's in February when he was charged in an arrest warrant with pointing a gun at a woman and threatening her. The charge was later dismissed and the case was reassigned. It is not clear if he still lives there. A trust is listed as the owner of the property. Authorities are still working to determine exactly who was involved and what led up to the shooting. WLWT's cameras were on the scene as police tried to piece together what happened overnight. The investigation lasted well into the night, with a large police presence outside the home and deputies also going in and out of the home.
