Rasheed Mills, 16, was shot inside an apartment on the 1300 block of Vine Street in Cincinnati’s Over-the-Rhine neighborhood on the night of June 19, 2025. Officers found him with a gunshot wound to the chest; he was taken to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center and later died. The Hamilton County coroner identified him the next day. Police said the shooter fled immediately after the gunfire.

Friends and family described Rasheed as a well-liked Taft High School sophomore who worked shifts with 3CDC at Washington Park and volunteered as a counselor-in-training at a diabetes camp. He enjoyed wrestling, video games with his dad, and making people laugh. On June 25, Cincinnati police arrested a 14-year-old boy and booked him on multiple counts including murder, reckless homicide, and two counts of felonious assault; in juvenile court the teen, identified only by initials D.H., was ordered detained. Authorities did not disclose a motive and said the investigation is ongoing.

Did anyone in Over-the-Rhine know Rasheed or see anything the night of June 19 that could help investigators?
