Sarah Rachel Westbrooks, 33, of Cincinnati, Ohio, was shot and later died of her injuries after an early-morning attack on October 25, 2023. She and her fiancé were in a vehicle with their 1-year-old son on the 3300 block of River Road when someone drove up and began shooting into the car. The child was uninjured; Westbrooks and her fiancé were critically wounded. Westbrooks was taken to a hospital and later succumbed to her injuries.

A mother of five, Westbrooks’ death has left an immediate caregiving burden on her extended family, who now care for her children and face financial strain because she had recently returned to work and her employee benefits had not yet taken effect. No arrests or suspects have been publicly identified and the investigation remains ongoing.

Does anyone have information that could help investigators or know more about what happened that morning?
