Police were notified of the shooting after Tremayne Burdine dropped off his children at a relative’s home in Harrison Twp. The children were crying and said that their father shot their mother, a woman said in a 911 call.
The woman then went to the Burdine family’s home in the 1100 block of Vernon Drive in Dayton and discovered her cousin deceased at the back door, the woman told dispatchers.
Family members told police that Tremayne Burdine likely fled to Chicago, according to court records.
Dayton police and multiple U.S. Marshals task forces, including the Southern Ohio Fugitive Apprehension Strike Team, Great Lakes Regional Task Force in Illinois and Gulf Coast Regional Fugitive Task Force in Alabama, worked together to find Burdine after he fled Ohio.
Marshals investigators found Burdine in the 3000 block of Rosa Parks Avenue in Montgomery, Alabama, and arrested him Friday without incident.
