SPRINGFIELD, Ohio (WDTN) – Police have released more information regarding Wednesday’s chaotic scene involving reports of a shooting and a fully-engulfed house fire.

Around 2 p.m., officers responded to the area of South Lowry Avenue at West Euclid Avenue for reports of a female with a possible gunshot wound.

Officers found the woman outside in the 300 block of West Euclid Avenue. Her right ear was injured, and she was doused in fuel.

She told police that a male suspect poured the fuel on her and fired several shots at her with a handgun.

She was running from the home she shared with the man in the 300 block of West Liberty Street when authorities found her.

Medics with the Springfield Fire Division arrived on the scene and treated the woman before taking her to Springfield Regional Medical Center.

Officers found the home fully engulfed in flames shortly after their arrival. The Springfield Fire Division responded to the area and assisted with extinguishing the fire.

A man’s body was found inside.
