Damon Cure, 36, was fatally shot on July 25, 2014, in the parking lot of the Golden Nugget bar on Queen City Avenue in Cincinnati. He was found in the driver’s side of a vehicle after an exchange of gunfire that followed an altercation in the lot at about 9:30 p.m., and was later pronounced dead at the hospital.

About 50 feet from Cure’s vehicle, 43-year-old Alex Penland was found suffering from gunshot wounds. Penland was charged with murder and claimed he acted in self-defense. Surveillance video and other evidence presented at trial showed Cure was ambushed and did not have a chance to defend himself; Penland was convicted of murder and received a 28-year prison sentence. Penland was also convicted on heroin trafficking and possession charges that were included in that sentence.

The case drew attention to the violent nature of the incident and the role of drug-related crimes in the area. Does anyone have information about the altercation that led to the shooting or remember details from that night?
