Darke County Deputies
respond to Bradford stabbing
On Friday, April 21, 2017 at approximately 11:49 P.M., the Darke County
Sheriff’s Office received a 911 call requesting an ambulance to 7724
Martin Road Bradford, Ohio in reference to a man that was stabbed.
Darke County deputies responded to that residence along with Gettysburg
Fire and Rescue. The investigation revealed Benjamin J. Reed (35)
and Benjamin J. Hampshire (23) both from Union City, Ohio, made entry
into the residence and assaulted Jason R. Garrett (33) of Greenville,
Ohio. During the altercation, Mr. Garrett stabbed Mr. Reed in the
chest and abdomen. Mr. Garrett and Mr. Hampshire both fled the
residence prior to the deputy’s arrival. Mr. Reed was transported
by Careflight to Miami Valley Hospital. Mr. Garrett was located
shortly after in Greenville and was transported to Wayne Health Care by
Greenville Township Rescue for treatment of the injuries he sustained
during the altercation and was released later that day.
On Saturday April 22, 2017 at 3:53 P.M., deputies located Mr. Hampshire
at the Hunter Oak Apartments in Greenville, Ohio where he was taken
into custody without further incident on charges of Aggravated Burglary.
Mr. Reed’s condition is unknown at this time.
This case will be presented to the Darke County Prosecutor’s Office for
further review and additional charges are likely.
This case remains under investigation.
