CINCINNATI — An 18-year-old was shot and killed and another person was injured in a drive-by shooting Tuesday night in West Price Hill, Cincinnati police said.
The shooting happened just after 9 p.m. in the 900 block of Siebel Lane. When officers arrived, they found two shooting victims, including 18-year-old Dewey Curtis, police said. Bower told WCPO he was found shot in a vehicle.
Police said both victims were taken to the UC Medical Center where Curtis died. The other victim, who has not been identified, is in stable condition, police said.
Jonathan Newell, who lives on Siebel Lane, said his terrified girlfriend called 911 immediately.
"She heard the gunshots and hit the ground," Newell said.
Another neighbor, Alice Lefker, said at the time she was in her back bedroom.
"I just heard like five gunshots just really loud and rapid," Newell said. "I didn't know what to think. At first I was kind of scared to come out to the front because I didn't know what we going on, [if] they was actually trying to shoot this way."
She told us in the years she's lived in this area, nothing like this has ever happened.
"It scared me we don't really hear things like that in this neighborhood," Lefker said.
A nearby Ring camera captured the shooting, showing a light-colored pickup truck driving down the street. Roughly 20 gunshots ring out before the vehicle pulls away.
Bower also said they have no suspects in the shooting yet, but it "appears to be isolated."
Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call the Cincinnati Police Department at 513-325-3542.
