Brandon Lawrence, 30, was fatally shot just after midnight on June 12, 2025, on Walnut Street in Over-the-Rhine. Officers found him with a gunshot wound around 12:35 a.m.; Cincinnati Fire Department personnel transported him to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, where he died. A second person wounded in the same burst of gunfire went by private vehicle to Christ Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Prosecutors later described a chaotic scene near Walnut and Corwine, where an alleged confrontation involved a stolen car driven by a 14-year-old and other teens. Multiple youths reportedly exited vehicles and fired a volley of about 41 shots toward people gathered on church steps; an Uber driver was struck in the shoulder by a bullet that pierced the windshield. Surveillance footage was cited as key to identifying a suspect. Investigators announced the arrest of a 14-year-old in connection with Lawrence’s death on September 18, and the homicide probe remained active as the juvenile case moved through initial hearings.

Funeral notices identified the victim as Brandon Mark-Keith Lawrence, born in Cincinnati in 1994, with visitation and a service held at House of Hope Fellowship on June 20, 2025. Does anyone have information about that night near Walnut and Corwine that could help the investigation?
