David Wheeldon, 41, was fatally shot in Cincinnati’s Northside neighborhood on June 9, 2014, about 6:22 p.m. Officers responding to a report of an attempted breaking and entering heard gunfire; Wheeldon was found dead on the sidewalk at the intersection of Chase Avenue and Cherry Street with another man standing over him holding a gun.

The shooter, described as a man in his 50s, was taken into custody without incident and claimed self‑defense. The Hamilton County Prosecutor’s Office was reviewing the case and no charges had been filed at the time; the shooter was released from police custody while the investigation continued and the matter was to be presented to a grand jury. Wheeldon’s wife, Lena Wheeldon, 36, said her husband had been drinking and had an argument with their 14‑year‑old son shortly before the shooting; she had called police and asked him to leave.

Several witnesses, including young children, were present at the scene. What can readers who were in Northside that evening add about what they saw or heard?
