DOTHAN, ALABAMA — A man from Ashford was fatally shot after he allegedly invaded a residence and started attacking an individual there.
The situation unfolded on McCallister Road within Dothan’s city limits.
The local police identified the deceased as Charles Kevin Sexton, 55, from Ashford. He had reportedly come to the house in search of his former girlfriend, whom he suspected to be present.
