Neighbor shares alarming allegations about incident near Joe Mixon’s house

An incident that took place outside Joe Mixon’s house Monday night left a teenager hospitalized with injuries, and a neighbor shared a troubling account of what took place.

Hamilton County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to a call that gunshots had been fired in a residential neighborhood in in Anderson Township, Ohio. A juvenile was transported to a local hospital to be treated for minor injuries, though it is unclear how the injuries were sustained. Deputies initially placed crime scene tape around a home on Ayers Road that is located next to Mixon’s home.

Police later placed at least one evidence marker in Mixon’s yard and extended the crime scene tape to include the Cincinnati Bengals running back’s property. Law enforcement officials were seen entering Mixon’s home carrying materials to take notes, but no arrests were made.

According to Mike Schell of Fox 19 in Cincinnati, a neighbor says the gunshots were fired at a group of high schoolers who were playing a game with NERF guns outside a home next to Mixon’s. The shots allegedly came from Mixon’s house, though it is not clear who fired them.
