On May 22, 2021, 16-year-old Olivia Kurtz was shot and killed at Bicentennial Park in Columbus, Ohio during an unsanctioned pop-up party attended by roughly 200–300 people. Olivia was a 10th grader at Fort Hayes Metropolitan Education Center and an honors student. Five others were wounded but survived, making six injured in total including Olivia.
