Brown was originally inducted on felonious assault and domestic violence in September 2023. The charges were in connection to an alleged assault on Victoria Avenue in the same month.
Police were called to the home on Victoria Avenue on reports of an assault on Sept. 18, 2023. When they got to the scene, they found 69-year-old Mitchell Brown in a chair “with several lacerations and ‘dents’ on his head.”
When talking to police, Mitchell’s son, Dorsey, admitted to hitting his father “repeatedly with a lamp,” according to an affidavit and statement of facts originally filed in Dayton Municipal Court.
