Megan Betts, the sister of Connor Betts, was one of her brother’s victims, authorities have confirmed. Connor Betts killed nine people at Ned Peppers bar in Dayton, Ohio, on August 3. Megan was one of those who was shot dead. She was 22 and the youngest of the nine people killed.

Contrary to earlier reports, Megan was not the first person who was killed but was one of the initial victims, Police Chief Richard Biehl said Sunday at a press conference. Megan arrived at Ned Peppers bar with her brother, as well as Megan’s companion, but “separated” at some point.

NBC News’ Pete Williams reported, via, Andrew Blankstein, that Megan and her boyfriend had been found fatally shot in a car. Officials have rejected that report and have said the Megan was found in a similar location to the other victims. Officials said that Megan’s “companion” was among the wounded but was not killed. He has been interviewed by police.

The others who have lost their lives have been named as, Lois Loglesby, 27, Saeed Saleh, 38, Derrick Fudge, 57, Logan Turner, 30, Nicholas Cumer, 25, Thomas McNichols, 25, Beatrice Warren-Curtis, 36 and Monica Brickhouse, 39. Six of the nine victims were African-American and three were white but police say there are no indiciations so far that bias played a role in the shooting.

Authorities believe that Connor Betts opened fire on a crowd at a bar in Dayton’s Oregon District, killing nine people and wounding dozens more. Connor Betts was then shot dead by responding officers, officials said. In a press conference, authorities said that the suspect was wearing body armor and extra ammunition on him at the time he was killed.
