Laura Schueler, 47, a Black transgender woman from Cincinnati, Ohio, was found shot just after dawn on June 7, 2025, in the Evanston neighborhood. First responders discovered her on the 1500 block of Jonathan Avenue around 6:50 a.m.; she was declared deceased at the scene and the Cincinnati Police Department opened a homicide investigation. Detectives canvassed the area and asked the public for tips.

Friends and advocates described Schueler as a generous, animal-loving presence who was well known in local LGBTQ+ circles. Community memorials and vigils followed, and remembrance pages said she had been shot near her home, which amplified calls for information and justice during Pride Month events.

A month after the killing, detectives arrested 18-year-old Ajani Grimes in connection with the shooting; a judge set bond at $2 million. Court filings cited witness statements, surveillance video, and physical evidence from the scene and the arrest location. Police have not announced a motive and the investigation remains active.

Did anyone in the Evanston neighborhood or the wider community see or hear anything that morning that might help investigators?
