CINCINNATI — The Hamilton County Coroner's Office has identified the man killed in an Over-the-Rhine shooting that happened on Thursday afternoon.
According to the coroner, Allen Scott, 50, was shot in the 500 block of West McMicken Avenue.
The Cincinnati Police Department is working to identify a suspect but has not yet provided any information on who may have been responsible for the shooting.
CPD said Allen was shot while outside, on the sidewalk.
That stretch of West McMicken is lined with buildings that house apartments, police said, but officers did not find anyone hurt at any nearby homes.
The shooting is also very near the McMicken playground, a Cincinnati Recreation Commission-maintained play area.
Editor's note: This story previously said the victim was taken to a hospital following the shooting. That was incorrect. WCPO regrets the error.
