A murder charge is the accusation filed after the arrest. Davis is dead. No jury has heard this case.

Ross County deputies were called shortly after 5 a.m. Friday to 139 Temple Street in Frankfort. The call was an assault in progress. They found Brandon Davis, 31, lying in the front yard. He was taken to Adena Regional Medical Center, where he died.

Sheriff George W. Lavender Jr. said Ajani Ewing, 21, was arrested and charged with murder. The sheriff's office has not said what led to the assault, and it has not said whether the two men knew each other. The investigation is still open.

All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
