Deante Mattocks, 28, was fatally shot at Our Daily Bread, a soup kitchen in Cincinnati’s Over-the-Rhine neighborhood, on January 9, 2017. The shooting occurred early in the morning when 43-year-old Robert Jacobs entered the facility and began shooting. Mattocks was found dead inside the building; a woman was seriously injured and survived.

Jacobs was arrested at the scene and charged with murder, felonious assault, having weapons under disability, and related counts. Investigators described the attack as stemming from a domestic dispute involving Jacobs, Mattocks, and the female victim; reports called Jacobs a jilted lover and noted he had bought the gun the day before and researched penalties. Jacobs’ bond was set at more than $2.5 million and he was held without bail pending trial.

Our Daily Bread temporarily closed to review security and support guests, volunteers, and staff after the shooting. If anyone knew Deante Mattocks or has information about the events that morning, please share what you know.
