DDN: Man fatally shot in Five Oaks - in his car

September 4, 2003

DAYTON | Police had no suspects in the Tuesday night slaying of a man who was sitting in a car with his girlfriend.

Montgomery County Coroner’s officials identified the man as Terry Beasley, 23, of Fairborn.

Police were called at 9:54 p.m. to Five Oaks Avenue, where they found a man unconscious in a car. Neighbors said the victim was dropping off his girlfriend when he was shot. He drove his car down the alley and crashed it into the garage at 109 Five Oaks.

Beasley was sitting in the car with his girlfriend when another man, wearing a hooded sweatshirt, walked past the vehicle, turned around, walked back and shot Beasley twice, Lt. John Huber said.

Beasley was pronounced dead at Miami Valley Hospital about 30 minutes after he was shot.

"Right now, we do not have a definite motive," Huber said.

Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call police at 333-COPS (2677).
