A man who reportedly attacked his brother, leading to a struggle over a gun and shots being fired in Huber Heights, has been indicted.

Elijah Anthony Brown-Lee is facing three counts of felonious assault and one count each of strangulation, improperly discharging a firearm at or into a habitation and domestic violence, according to Montgomery County Common Pleas Court records.

The domestic violence charge is a first-degree misdemeanor.

Huber Heights police responded to the 8200 block of Mt. Charles Drive around 10:33 p.m. on Nov. 9 for a report of a person firing a gun.

Two men got into an argument that led to a fight, according to police. No one was shot during the incident.

Brown-Lee is accused of threatening his brother with a knife and choking him.

“During the altercation the victim attempted to grab a firearm because he was in fear of his life,” an affidavit read. “The defendant and victim began to wrestle over the firearm. The defendant then began to bite the victim several times.”

The fight continued into a front yard and onto a neighbor’s car.

Brown-Lee had his brother pinned on the vehicle and then got control of the gun, according to an affidavit.

“The defendant fired at least three rounds at the victim as the victim was running away from the defendant,” according to court documents.

One of the rounds reportedly hit a home.

Brown-Lee is scheduled to be arraigned on Thursday.
