The lone survivor of the 2011 Craigslist shootings distinctly remembered hearing a click, then “a curse word.”

Scott William Davis, who grew up in Massillon, told a Summit County jury how he managed to escape on “a sunshiny morning,” Nov. 6, 2011, after being shot once in the right elbow by a man he knew then as “Jack.”

Stories labeled "Beacon First" are published in the newspaper before appearing in full on Ohio.com.
