Cornelius Edrington Jr., 18, was shot and killed in Cincinnati in the early hours of Sunday, June 21, 2026. A recent high school graduate known to family and friends as Corn, he had launched a clothing brand as a teenager and was remembered for a funny, goofy personality that made him the life of the party. He was at a large gathering in Fairview Park when officers who were dispersing the crowd heard gunfire. Responding officers found Cornelius on Ravine Street with a life-threatening gunshot wound; emergency crews and police provided life-saving measures but he died at the park.

The Cincinnati Police Department Homicide Unit opened an investigation. In the days immediately after the shooting investigators had not announced any arrests or publicly identified suspects, and police asked anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers. The case remains open and active as the family and community seek answers.

Did anyone at the Fairview Park gathering on June 20–21 notice anything that could help investigators?
