A heavily-tatted Ohio man was thrown behind bars after stray gunfire from his property allegedly hit two shoppers at a nearby grocery store, police said.
Jayson Hall, 40, was firing shots from his property when one rogue bullet struck two people inside the lobby of a Maineville Kroger around 7:30 p.m. Friday, according to the Hamilton Township Police Department and local reports.
Both victims were rushed to local hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries.
A bullet hole was also found in one of the store’s sliding glass doors, with police adding that the shooting was accidental, WLWT5 reported.
The inked-up suspect was arrested shortly after the incident, which reportedly forced the Kroger to close and shut down surrounding streets during the investigation.
“Thank you to all the assisting agencies that responded to help ensure everyone’s safety,” police said in a statement on Facebook.
“Their quick response and support exemplify the teamwork among law enforcement agencies in our region. We also appreciate the patience and cooperation shown by members of the community while officers investigated the incident.”
Hall was hit with two counts of assault, two counts of negligent assault, one count of inducing panic, and one count of improperly discharging a firearm.
He is being held at the Warren County Jail.
