Van fleeing police crashes, injuring nine


Public safety notes

The Enquirer

OVER-THE-RHINE - Nine people were injured, none seriously, when a van fleeing police crashed into another vehicle at 12th Street and Central Parkway on Sunday.

The crash, which occurred in congested traffic leaving the Bengals game, prompted police to close Central Parkway from Elm Street to Ezzard Charles Drive for four hours.

The incident began at Fifth and Elm streets when the driver of the van, McKinley Douglas, 27, of Vine Vista Place, Avondale, fired shots above the head of a crowd, Sgt. John Wainscott said.

Officers spotted the van and began a pursuit before the van crashed, Wainscott said. The van ran a red light and struck a car that was northbound on Central Parkway. Seven people were inside the vehicle, including an unrestrained 2-year-old.

The van rolled onto its side, and the other car - with two people inside - went across the median and hit a tree. All nine people in the two vehicles were taken to the hospital. All but two, including the 2-year-old, were treated and released.

Douglas was charged with carrying a concealed weapon and with a drug charge after crack cocaine was discovered in his possession, Wainscott said. Additional traffic charges are pending, he said.

PRICE HILL - One person died Sunday evening after a shooting in a Glenway Avenue apartment.

The shooting occurred about 7:45 p.m. in the 4000 block of Glenway Avenue, police said. The name of the shooting victim was not available late Sunday.

A gun thought to have been used in the shooting was found near the scene.

Police were searching for a suspect described as black male, 5-foot-7 to 5-foot-9 with a light complexion and a thin build. He was wearing a black head wrap, black muscle shirt and tan shorts. He was last seen on Glenway Avenue near Iliff Avenue.

Anyone with information on the shooting is asked to call Cincinnati Police department's criminal investigations section at (513) 352-3542 or Crime Stoppers at (513) 352-3040.

Rollover on I-71 sends driver to hospital

LEBANON - A man was injured when his truck crashed on Interstate 71 near Lebanon Sunday.

Jeffery Record, 31, of Butler, Ky., was driving north on I-71 near the exit for Ohio 123 when his semi veered to the right and went off the highway, according to a spokeswoman with the state police in Warren County.

The truck struck a road sign and flipped. The accident occurred about 9:30 a.m..

Record was flown by helicopter to Miami Valley Hospital in Dayton. He was in fair condition Sunday afternoon.

Woman, 20, charged with murder of man

A 20-year-old woman was arrested Saturday in the death of a Westwood man.

Cincinnati police arrested Darnise Edwards, of the 3900 block of Yearling Court, and charged her with first-degree murder.

Aaron Zimmerman, 21, was shot Friday at an apartment building on Parkcrest Lane. He was pronounced dead at University Hospital.

No other details were available Sunday.

Zimmerman was the 54th homicide victim of the year in Cincinnati. That's up from 47 at this time last year.
