Dad Dominique Ford was arrested after child shot at Savannah apartment complex


Apparently DAD Dominique Ford was breaking in to retrieve guns? I can almost bet although not mentioned below there is a ROI against this GENTLE DADDY. At least for now, he is in jail. But I am sure that his case is far from over. He is already trying to take the baby daughter from the her mother.

Savannah-Chatham police arrested a 26-year-old Garden City man after his daughter was shot Monday morning at a west Chatham County apartment complex.

Dominique Ford was treated at Memorial University Medical Center, along with 2-year-old De’Kiiyah Roper, after West Chatham precinct officers found Ford walking away from the scene with the child at Westlake Apartments.

Police said neither wound received by the two was life-threatening. Investigators said the shooting occurred during a domestic dispute.

About 11:45 a.m., police were called to the apartment complex following reports of a shooting of a man and a child. They reported they found Ford had climbed out of a window with the child and was walking through a wooded area with her. He was charged with aggravated assault.

Violent Crimes detectives determined that Ford had entered the residence to retrieve a gun and a struggle then ensued between him and Dennaysha Roper, 21, the child’s mother and resident of the apartment. She was able to get the gun away from him and fired once, striking him. But he then picked up the child before she fired again, said police spokesman Julian Miller.

Miller said Criminal Investigations Division detectives are continuing to investigate the incident.

A woman who identified herself at the taped-off scene as the property manager said the apartment community has not had any recent problems.

Monday’s incident was the fourth shooting that has occurred in the past seven days and the fifth shooting in nearly four weeks.

On Jan. 23, a Savannah man was struck by a bullet police said two other men fired at his apartment door at the Turtle Creek Apartment complex on White Bluff Road.

On Jan. 22, Evan Colquitt, 17, was shot multiple times on Sharondale Road in the Windsor Forest neighborhood. He died later at the hospital.

On Jan. 21, Rebecca Lorraine Foley, 21, was fatally shot in her car near her apartment at Colonial Village at Marsh Cove off White Bluff Road.
