Police have a person of interest in custody following a Wednesday afternoon shooting in Dayton.

Emergency crews responded around 1 p.m. to a house in the 900 block of Wyoming Street on a report that a man was shot in the neck. They found a man on the street a short distance away who had been shot at least once, Dayton Police Sgt. Eric Brown said.

Medics took the man to a local hospital. His condition is not known, though Brown said the man was alert and conscious when they found him.

Brown said that police had a person of interest in custody and that there was not a threat to the general public.

Montgomery County Jail records show that a 28-year-old woman was arrested at the same address and booked on suspicion of felonious assault. She has not been formally charged.

The shooting remains under investigation.
