On the afternoon of June 28, 2025, Janae Winnick, 46, of Cleveland was shot and killed while seated in a vehicle on the 6700 block of Schaefer Avenue on the city’s East Side. Police were called just after 3:37 p.m. to reports of multiple people shot; Winnick was pronounced dead at the scene and a 15-year-old girl who was riding with her was struck in the leg and taken to a hospital. Neighbors described a burst of gunfire that shattered a summer Saturday and left the vehicle pockmarked by bullets.

Detectives from the homicide unit opened an investigation and canvassed the Schaefer Avenue corridor. The medical examiner identified Winnick, and local memorial pages noted her name and age. As of the initial reports, no arrests had been announced and no suspect or motive had been publicly identified while the teenager recovered.

Did anyone in the St. Clair–Superior neighborhood see or hear anything that afternoon that could help investigators?
