On a late morning in South Cumminsville, Jevon Kirk, 27, was shot along the 3800 block of Llewellyn Avenue on May 30, 2025. Someone rushed him to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center in a private vehicle; doctors listed him in stable but critical condition. He died of his injuries on June 7, 2025, and the Hamilton County Coroner classified the death as a homicide.

Police did not immediately explain what led to the shooting. Attention later focused on a house on Llewellyn where court filings reported that Keron Bonds was accused of shooting Kirk while another man, Landin Behanan, allegedly drove Bonds to the location. Both men were arrested in the immediate aftermath and initially charged with felonious assault; bond amounts varied and both were barred from possessing firearms if released. A Hamilton County grand jury subsequently indicted Landin Behanan on two counts of murder, one count of felonious assault, and having weapons under disability, while a previously filed felonious-assault charge against the other man was ignored by the grand jury.

The investigation remained active and authorities did not disclose a motive. If anyone knew Jevon Kirk or has information about the shooting on Llewellyn Avenue, please come forward.
