CINCINNATI — A teen was shot and killed Thursday night in a double shooting in Bond Hill.
According to CPD, officers responded to the 4900 block of Paddock Road near Regent Avenue at around 8:30 p.m. for a shooting. CPD Capt. Joe Richardson said two teenage boys were shot at the Sunoco gas station in what appeared to be a drive-by shooting.
Jamir Thompkins, 15, was killed in the shooting. Another teen, whose age and name have not been released, was injured and expected to survive.
Thompkins' brother Quay Stone said next week would've been his 16th birthday.
"I feel like nobody can ever replace him," Stone said. "He made me happy in every way. He graduated was making his way to high school. I'm so proud of him I can't even cry, I'm happy he's in a better place. I will forever love him."
Thompkins, who's a former Bengal Tigers youth football player, was a student at Dohn High School.
"He never meant no harm to nobody," Stone said. "He's not a bad kid honestly."
Police said they do not have a suspect in the shooting yet, and they are trying to gather a description.
CPD Chief Theresa Theetge said youth violence shouldn't be treated as a normal in Cincinnati.
"They should be doing things like many other youth," Theetge continued. "They should be going to school. They should be playing sports. They should be doing all the things that traditionally a young man or woman does."
