Ravon Edwards, a 25-year-old man from Cleveland, Ohio, was fatally shot on July 5, 2018, in the 9500 block of Marah Avenue. Police say Edwards was one of three men shot during a confrontation that broke out while a large group was setting off fireworks; shots were fired in the middle of the street. Edwards was pronounced dead at the scene. One other victim was taken to University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center with a gunshot wound to the hip, and a third suffered a gunshot wound to the leg.

Authorities identified Kelvin Clark Jr. and Devonte Brown as suspects and charged both with aggravated murder. Clark Jr. was arrested and booked into county jail and an arrest warrant was issued for Brown. Warrants allege that Clark Jr. and Brown engaged in a verbal and physical altercation with Edwards, during which both men pulled handguns and shot him. The slaying occurred amid a violent 48-hour period in Cleveland that included multiple homicides and shootings.

Edwards was remembered at funeral services held at R.A. Prince Funeral Services in Maple Heights. He was the son of Bilial Hakeem and Cheryl Edwards and Trinette Norfleet, a father of three, and a brother to seven siblings.
