The Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office has approved charges against a man accused of shooting his girlfriend and her son, killing the son, Wednesday morning.

Brian Holloman, 45, will be charged with murder and felonious assault, Sgt. Dan Mauk said Wednesday afternoon.

Quinton Stone, 25 was killed during an apparent ongoing dispute in the 700 block of North Gettysburg at about 3:15 a.m. Twanda Stone, 52, was injured and remains in serious condition at Miami Valley Hospital, Mauk said.

This is the city’s 24th homicide this year.

Officers first responded to the shooting around 3:15 a.m. and when they arrived they found Quinton Stone laying on the side of the street. He was pronounced dead at the scene, according to reports.

Holloman and Twanda Stone have had a romantic relationship marked by domestic violence, Mauk said. Apparently, Quinton Stone noticed some bruising on his mother’s face and became concerned. The Stones and Quinton’s girlfriend then went to Holloman’s house.

When they arrived, Quinton Stone picked up a landscaping tie and began bashing in the front window. Holloman came outside and began firing. At some point, Quinton Stone fled, leaving Holloman’s property and running across the street, but Holloman pursued him and continued firing.

“That does not work when it comes to the Castle Doctrine,” Mauk said, referring to the doctrine that allows people to use deadly force when an intruder tries to enter their homes without becoming liable for prosecution.

Stone was shot several times, Mauk said.

Other possible charges will be presented to a Montgomery County grand jury, Mauk said.
