On the evening of Sunday, September 7th to the morning of Monday September 8th, Resident of Burkhardt Avenue, Dayton, Kevin Harney was taken into custody after a standoff. The initial call that alerted the police came in at around the time of 7:38 pm on Sunday, where the police were notified of a drug complaint. The police was unsure of his true identity but determined the man’s name was most likely Kevin Harney.
The police found out that Harney had a violent past of weapon offenses and had recently violated his probation. Soon enough, the police came and Harney refused to come out the door to speak with them. So the officers issued a warrant before they contacted SWAT. They used K9s, Drones, ect, just to make Harney escape, however, they refused to use tear gas for it. After multiple hours of doing this, Harney finally gave up and left his house. He was quickly taken into custody, several people came out during this but weren’t charged when they investigated,
the police found signs of Drug Abuse, and possession of a firearm in Harney’s house. Julian Jackson, Whitney Williams, and Trey Brown from WDTN news stated “The person was later arrested and a firearm was recovered. No injuries were reported” (Jackson, Williams, Brown, September 8th 2025)…
