Leroy White, 40, was shot in the head and killed on August 27, 2017, in the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood of Cincinnati. The shooting happened around 5:07 p.m. near 1706 Race Street, and White was pronounced dead at the scene. The Cincinnati Police Department’s Homicide Unit opened an investigation.

A suspect, 37-year-old Terrell Tolbert, was arrested early the next morning and charged with murder; he was later indicted on charges related to the homicide. Investigators reported that White and Tolbert had a prior altercation the night before, and Tolbert claimed White had shot at him on both occasions. Tolbert was ultimately found guilty of involuntary manslaughter and sentenced to 14 years in prison. White’s family expressed mixed feelings about the plea and sentence, with his mother agreeing to it while two sisters said it was insufficient.

Are there witnesses or neighbors who remember the events on Race Street that evening or interactions between White and Tolbert in the days before the shooting?
