Jaylyn McCoy, 19, of Cincinnati was fatally shot on August 21, 2018, on Hawaiian Terrace in Mt. Airy during an attempted robbery. Another person was shot in the same incident and survived, but McCoy died at the scene.

Two men were arrested in connection with the case. Raymere Buck, 23, was charged with aggravated murder. Buck admitted being at the scene but denied firing the fatal shot, saying someone he knew only as P planned the robbery; his attorney said Buck fled when another victim began firing. Buck was held on a one million dollar bond. Alexis Davis, 36, was also arrested and charged with murder and was scheduled to appear in court.

The case has drawn strong attention from the community and law enforcement as investigators and prosecutors work to clarify each suspect’s role. If anyone witnessed the shooting on Hawaiian Terrace or has information about who P might be, please come forward.
