One man was killed and two others were injured Saturday in one of Cincinnati's most violent weekends of the year. The incidents occurred in Over-the-Rhine and Price Hill. No arrests were made.
The city's 33rd homicide was at 2:15 a.m. Saturday when Daniel Gregory, 18, of Taylor Mill was fatally shot while driving in the 500 block of East 13th Street.
Police said his white Buick then crashed into several cars before coming to a stop near Pendleton Street.
Cincinnati Police said Gregory was pronounced dead at the scene with a gunshot wound to his abdomen.
Detectives are seeking help in tracking the suspects, described as two black menin their late teens or early 20s. Both are about 5 feet, 9 inches tall and 160 pounds. One wore a white T-shirt and red shorts. The other wore a white T-shirt and gray shorts.
Also Saturday, an unidentified man was shot in the thigh shortly after 1:30 p.m. near 15th and Vine streets and taken to University Hospital. His condition was not released.
Shortly after 5:30 p.m., another man, also unidentified, was shot three times at a three-story apartment building on Elberon Avenue in Price Hill.
He reportedly was standing in a doorway when two men approached him and a struggle ensued. One of the two men pulled out a gun and shot the man.
The men fled on foot along Eighth Street. The shooting victim, who did not live at the apartment complex, was taken to University Hospital. His injuries were described as non-life threatening. Cincinnati Police believe the shooting was drug related.
Two shootings occurred Friday in the West End.
Clarence Mosely, 33, of Price Hill was killed about 4 p.m. in front of Parktown Cafe on Linn Street.
Friday morning, an unidentified man was shot in the head in the 800 block of York Street near Linn Street. He was taken to University Hospital. His condition was not released.
