CPD reported that a 15-year-old has been charged with murder. Court documents show the teen is charged with one count of murder, one count of aggravated murder, one county of aggravated robbery, one count of carrying a concealed weapon.
WCPO 9 recently spoke with the victim, Mirick after he witnessed a deadly shooting in Union Township on April 1st.
Mirick introduced himself as "John Larry", a pseudonym he used for his social media profiles, including YouTube and TikTok.
Family and friends described Mirick as a beloved son, brother, father, and friend. He was one of 11 siblings and leaves behind a six-month-old child.
Sunday afternoon, Mirick's family and loved ones gathered at Clippard Park in Colerain Township to release balloons in his honor.
"Guns and bullets don’t discriminate. As a father, I did the best I could do," said Kyle Mirick's father, Bryant Mirick.
The Mirick family held each other close, sharing memories of their brother and friend.
"Every day he texted me, made sure I was good, saying I love you. Every day, no matter what he was doing, he made sure I was alright," Kyle's sister Katie Mirick said.
Katie Mirick has started a GoFundMe for the family to help with funeral costs and support for Kyle Mirick's two children.
One person alongside the family was Jakiesha McDonald, a woman who said she saw the shooting and aftermath with her own eyes.
"I literally seen him take his last breath in front of me. It's like, I didn’t know what to do, like I was like, literally panicking," said McDonald.
Now, McDonald has connected with the Mirick family, vowing to be there for them in whatever they need.
