Lamon Wiggins was 18 and a recent Withrow High School graduate when he was shot and killed after a graduation party on the school grounds in Cincinnati on May 18, 2024. The gathering began late after the ceremony; gunfire erupted around 3:30 a.m., and Wiggins died the following morning.

Police received multiple noise complaints about the party that night and say officers spoke with attendees earlier and found no evidence of wrongdoing. Wiggins’ family disputes that account, saying officers had chances to intervene before the shooting and that earlier action might have prevented his death. Investigators are reviewing surveillance footage, interviewing witnesses and looking for a specific SUV believed to be connected to the incident. No arrests have been announced.

Anyone who was at the school that night or who has information about the SUV or the shooter is asked to come forward.
