Cameron Tyler Clemmons was 24 when he was shot multiple times and killed on January 29, 2016, while crossing the street in Cincinnati’s Bond Hill neighborhood. He suffered about five gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene in front of an apartment building on Franklin Avenue near Oakdale Avenue. Bond Hill Elementary School, a few blocks away, was briefly placed on lockdown after the shooting.

Investigators arrested 25-year-old William L. Chambers a few weeks after the killing; he was charged with murder and later indicted on murder and aggravated murder counts. At the time of his arrest he was being held at the Hamilton County Detention Center and had a prior criminal record that included weapons and drug convictions and an earlier sentence for felonious assault, robbery and receiving stolen property arising from a Bond Hill carjacking.

The shooting prompted frustration and sorrow in the neighborhood and spurred anti-violence rallies and vigils organized by community outreach advocates and the Cincinnati Human Rights Commission. Clemmons’ death was reported as the ninth homicide in the city that year. If anyone knew Cameron, saw the area that night, or has information that could help, please share what is known.
