The shooter, Thomas McCary is being held without bond on 4 counts of felonious assault.
McCary was arguing with a woman around 8 p.m. Sunday night and, when the woman’s brother, Patrick Ewing, approached, McCary pulled out a .38-caliber handgun and fired 3 shots at him, Cincinnati police said.
Fortunately, Ewing didn’t get hit, but he did get his own gun and returned fire, wounding McCary in the leg. Ewing had a permit to carry a concealed weapon.
Injured, McCary went into his house to get a second gun and, holding a weapon in each hand, he fired 3 more shots in the direction of the woman, Jeaneta Walker, her 1-year-old son and a 3rd man.
Ewing fired at McCary again to try to distract him as the victims fled indoors.
McCary squeezed off a few more rounds, hitting no one, before withdrawing into his apartment.
He was treated, released and booked into the Hamilton County Jail by 3:42 a.m. McCary is scheduled to face a judge.
