Paul Even, 53, was shot and killed at 913 Sycamore Street in Cincinnati, Ohio, on April 3, 1974. Identified also as MSGT Paul R. Even, he was born June 10, 1920, and is buried at Saint Joseph New Cemetery in Cincinnati. His death is classified as an unsolved homicide and remains an open investigation by the Cincinnati Police Department.

The killing occurred the same day as the Super Outbreak of tornadoes that struck Ohio and the Midwest, a coincidence that may have complicated emergency response and the original investigation. No suspect has been identified, and family and community advocates have repeatedly sought closure as authorities continue to seek information.

If anyone has information about Paul Even’s death or remembers events around Sycamore Street on April 3, 1974, please contact the Ohio Attorney General’s office or local law enforcement.
