Bond set at $2M for man arrested in creek killings

DAYTON - Bond has been set at $2 million for a man arrested in connection with the brutal murder of two men on Feb. 26.

Gregory A. Leet, 27, remains behind bars at the county jail today, March 5, on 10 felony charges, including: four counts of murder, four counts of felonious assault and single counts of tampering with evidence and robbery.

All charges are related to the execution-style killings of Nathan E. Gay, 49, and Harvey Sims Jr., whose bodies were found lying next to Bear Creek in Jefferson Twp. Both men had been shot several times, investigators said.

Leet, a registered Tier II sex offender, is believed to be the trigger man by Montgomery County Sheriff’s investigators who interviewed two other men who were present when Gay and Harvey Sims were shot to death, authorities said.

It appears Leet was trying to rob the men, authorities said.

Sheriff’s deputies arrested Leet Wednesday morning at his home, 3377 S. Union Road, less than two miles from where Gay’s and Sims’ bodies were found.

Two other men arrested on tampering with evidence charges early Wednesday morning by Riverside police were released from jail Thursday and are not being charged with any crimes at this time, prosecutor’s spokesman Greg Flannagan said.
