Terrance Owensby, a 41-year-old African American man from Cincinnati, was shot in the chest around 2:30 p.m. on May 25, 2021 near the intersection of Ohio and West McMicken avenues in Over-the-Rhine. He was transported to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.

A Hamilton County grand jury indicted 23-year-old Javonte Smith on a murder charge in Owensby’s death on June 14, 2021. Authorities have not disclosed a motive. Smith was already in custody on a separate murder charge for the killing of Randy Billings, which occurred about a week after Owensby’s death. Owensby is remembered by family as a loving father who enjoyed reading the Quran, working out, and spending time outdoors.
