Murdered by carjacking/robbery..Sadly missed by all who knew him.On the afternoon of December 15, 2000, at approximately 4:00 p.m., the victim,
Wilton Williams, pulled into an alley near the intersection of East Fifth Street and
Henry Street in Dayton in his burgundy Cadillac. Shortly thereafter, a green
Dodge Stratus also pulled into the alley, and [Reid and his co-defendant] stepped
from the Stratus and opened fire on Williams at close range as he sat in his
vehicle. Williams managed to drive his car out of the alley onto Keowee, and the
two assailants jumped back into the green Stratus and followed him. Williams
collided with another vehicle on Keowee, at which point the two assailants again
jumped out of their car and reached into Williams’ car, grabbing some money.
They then fled from the scene. Williams died a short time later from multiple
gunshot wounds. Reid, 2d Dist. Montgomery No. 19352, 2003-Ohio-4087, ¶ 3.
