CINCINNATI — The Hamilton County Coroner's Office on Monday identified the 11-year-old boy killed in a mass shooting in Cincinnati over the weekend as Dominic Davis. 

Police Chief Terri Theetge told reporters Sunday that an occupant of a sedan fired 22 rounds “in quick succession” into a crowd of children just before 9:30 p.m. Friday on the city’s West End. A 53-year-old woman was hit along with the boy who died; three other boys aged 12, 13 and 15; and a 15-year-old girl. 

Police continue to search for the shooter. 

Mayor Aftab Pureval called the shooting “sickening and unimaginable” and said it occurred in a vibrant neighborhood next to a local park and near a historic elementary school.

“Twenty-two rounds were fired,” Pureval said. “Twenty-two rounds in a moment — into a crowd of kids. No time to respond. No time to react.”

Pureval said the neighborhood is suffering “unimaginable trauma.” On Saturday and on Sunday morning, he said, people were “shouting messages of love and support to each other through open windows, but they were too wary to go outside.”

“The parents, and the kids themselves we talked to, don’t feel safe, and I frankly can’t blame them,” he said.

Theetge said it was too early to say whether the shooting was random or targeted, and she declined to discuss other aspects of the investigation. She urged whoever was responsible to turn themselves in, vowing, “We will find you and we will bring you to justice.”

Issac Davis, the father of the slain child, was at the news conference along with the boy’s mother and grandmother and also urged whoever was responsible to come forward.

“When will this stop? Will this ever stop?” Davis asked. “How many people have to bury their kids, their babies, their loved ones?”

The mayor said 40% of the illegal weapons on the city’s streets were stolen from cars, and he and the city manager urged gun owners to lock up their weapons. He decried both the ubiquity of guns and the “inability to resolve differences peacefully.”

Officials said two children, including the boy who died, attended Cincinnati Preparatory Academy. The others attended Cincinnati Public Schools. As of Sunday, one of the injured victims is still in the hospital in stable condition. 

At the time of the shooting, three victims with gunshot wounds were taken to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital and the other two victims were transported to U.C. Medical Center. One victim at Cincinnati Children’s is being treated for life-threatening injuries, according to police.

The Cincinnati Enquirer reported the shooting happened near Linn and John Streets.
