Norwood man charged after traffic death
A 19-year-old Norwood man was arrested Tuesday and charged in the traffic death of a disabled Elmwood Place man, who police initially thought had been shot.
Police charged Nicholas Andrew Mays, of the 2300 block of Kenilworth Avenue, with aggravated vehicular homicide and tampering with evidence in the death of Michael Boumer.
Mr. Mays, accompanied by his attorney, surrendered to police Tuesday evening.
The 38-year-old Mr. Boumer died Aug. 18 at University Hospital, a day after he was found critically injured lying in the parking lot of the Kroger store in Hartwell.
Responding to a anonymous 911 call, police discovered Mr. Boumer in the lot about 1:42 a.m. Authorities initially thought the victim had suffered a gunshot wound, but an examination by the Hamilton County coroner's office after his death determined he had suffered a blunt trauma to the head.
Relatives said Mr. Boumer, who had the mental capacity of a teen-ager, loved to ride his bicycle around the Elmwood Place, Carthage and Hartwell neighborhoods. During the investigation, police had said the victim's bicycle was missing.
The Cincinnati Police Division's homicide unit and traffic section are continuing a joint investigation of Mr. Boumer's death.
