AKRON, Ohio — A man was arrested Sunday after he reportedly struck his brother with a firearm and then shot him in the leg, according to police.

Romello Jackson, 22, of Akron, is charged with felonious assault, domestic violence, carrying a concealed weapon, receiving stolen property, and criminal trespassing. Police say Jackson has admitted to the shooting.

Officers were called to the 1200 block of Virginia Avenue in the Firestone Park neighborhood at about 12:30 p.m. Sunday. There they found the 29-year-old victim with a gunshot wound to his leg. Police say the victim and Jackson got into an argument and Jackson first hit the victim on the head with a revolver, then shot him.

Jackson had run from the home before police arrived, but officers tracked him down to the area of Rosemary Boulevard near Chesapeake Drive. Police say Jackson tried to run from officers but was caught after a short chase. A firearm reported stolen from Lorain County was found on Jackson, police say.

Jackson is being held in the Summit County Jail.
