Akron resident, suspect charged in fatal home invasion shooting


AKRON, Ohio (AP) — Authorities say an Ohio man who fatally shot one of two fleeing home-invasion suspects has been charged along with the one of the suspects.

David Hillis, 21, of Akron surrendered to police there Monday and was charged with voluntary manslaughter for fatally shooting 25-year-old Marcus Glover on Aug. 7.

Police say Glover and 37-year-old Terry Tart broke into Hillis’ home and then fled when Hillis produced a handgun. Police say Hillis fired the fatal shot as he chased the pair.

Hillis has told police he killed Glover in self-defense. He is free after posting bond on Monday.

Prosecutors say Tart is charged with aggravated burglary for the break-in and murder for having helped cause Glover’s death. Tart is in Summit County jail.
