There is no information on a suspect or what sparked the shooting, Theetge said.
“This is absolutely unacceptable in our city – it is unacceptable that on Friday night six people were shot in one incident,” Theetge said. “It is inhumane to pull out a firearm and recklessly shoot an individual.”
On Friday, Cincinnati Mayor Aftab Pureval said to X, “Tonight, a terrible tragedy occurred in the West End. Children are shot. At least one life has been lost. Our friends and neighbors feel unimaginable fear, trauma, and anger.”
