Felisa Vanessa Tremble, a 53-year-old woman from Cincinnati, OH, tragically passed away on September 9, 2020. She was found shot near the corner of Linn and Oliver streets in the West End neighborhood and was later pronounced dead at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center. The incident occurred around 1 a.m., and Tremble was identified as an unintended target.
Following the incident, Aaron Gill, a 25-year-old man, was arrested and charged with murder in connection with Tremble's
death. Gill was taken into custody on September 25, 2020, and held at the Hamilton County Justice Center awaiting a hearing. The grand jury later indicted Gill on additional charges, including felonious assault, drug trafficking, possession, and gun charges. Police believe Gill shot Tremble on Linn Street, and a gun charge was added following his arrest.
The case drew significant attention as Tremble was the 15th woman to be killed in Cincinnati that year, marking a concerning increase in female homicides. The investigation revealed that Gill was involved in drug trafficking, and Cincinnati Police drug investigators requested that some records be sealed. Gill remains in custody with a bond set at $550,000.
The tragic death of Felisa Tremble and the subsequent legal proceedings against Aaron Gill highlight the ongoing challenges faced by law enforcement and the community in addressing violent crime and ensuring justice for victims and their families.
