He is accused of shooting another man multiple times on May 11 in the 1600 block of Darst Avenue in Dayton.

Miami Valley Crime Stoppers had offered a reward for information leading to Shackleford’s arrest after police could not find him and he was involved in a June 7 felony assault involving a woman.
