Auvionne T’Nagi Chichester was 17 when she was shot and killed on March 27, 2022, at the Beechwood Apartments in Avondale, Cincinnati. Described as having a bright smile and plans to become a cosmetologist and own a salon, she was the mother of a 22-month-old daughter, Nowah Lee Chichester.

Police say the shooting happened during an argument; Auvionne’s boyfriend, 20-year-old Javonte Dixon, was arrested and charged with special felony murder and felonious assault and held on $1 million bond. A Hamilton County grand jury later indicted Dixon and the Cincinnati Police Homicide Unit continued the investigation.

Her family and community mourned the loss and continue to honor her memory. If anyone has information about what happened that night, please come forward to the Cincinnati Police Homicide Unit.
