What was he accused of?

• Deadly shooting: Morris-Ogelsby is accused of shooting and killing 46-year-old Keyson Webb at Sugar’s Lounge at 1919 N. Main St. early on April 5.

Dayton police responded to the bar and found Webb in a back room. Medics transported him to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

• Dice game: Witness statements, video surveillance and other details uncovered during the investigation revealed Morris-Ogelsby and Webb were rolling dice with others when the shooting happened, according to the prosecutor’s office.

“Surveillance cameras show Mr. Morris-Ogelsby with a weapon in hand walking toward the area where Mr. Webb was located,” Dayton police Maj. Chris Malson said. “The actual shooting is outside of the video surveillance; however, moments after he is seen walking toward Mr. Webb with the weapon, he is seen back on camera leaving bloody footprints behind, carrying a bag and also holding a weapon.”

Morris-Ogelsby reportedly went to the kitchen and took one of the security DVRs before fleeing.

• Reward offered: On Nov. 4, police announced the FBI was offering a $15,000 reward for information leading to Morris-Ogelsby‘s arrest.

He turned himself into police that evening.

What happens next?

• Arraignment: Morris-Ogelsby‘s arraignment is set for Tuesday.

He is being held in the Montgomery County Jail on a $1 million bond.
