Police briefly surrounded a house in Dayton Tuesday afternoon after a person reportedly pointed a gun at a neighbor.

Officers responded around 1:50 p.m. to the 300 block of Bellaire Avenue, said Dayton police Sgt. Michael Beane.

Beane said that the caller tried to break up a domestic violence incident on Monday involving the same neighbor, and that the suspect assaulted the caller.

Police surrounded the house, but later determined the suspect was not inside.

Law enforcement is now looking for the suspect who is wanted for assault and a probation violation, the sergeant said.
