She-ar Dornal was an 18-year-old male who was shot and killed on July 23, 2016, in the West End neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio. He was found dead in the courtyard area of the Stanley Rowe Community apartments on Lockhurst Lane shortly before 3 p.m. following an altercation.

Police arrested 18-year-old Coron Smith in connection with Dornal’s death; Smith was charged with aggravated murder and held on $1 million bond. The case record notes Smith had prior weapons-related charges and other run-ins with the law, and that investigators linked him to multiple other incidents including an April 2016 shooting in which two women were struck but escaped. Court dates were scheduled to address the charges.

The community gathered at the scene as relatives mourned, and the Cincinnati Police Department’s Homicide Unit and Fugitive Apprehension Unit handled the investigation. Does anyone have information about that day at the Stanley Rowe apartments or about She-ar Dornal’s life in the West End?
