Jaylyn McCoy, a 19-year-old from Cincinnati, Ohio, tragically lost his life on August 21, 2018, in Mt. Airy. He was fatally shot during an attempted robbery on Hawaiian Terrace. Another individual was also shot during the incident but survived.
Raymere Buck, aged 23, was arrested and charged with aggravated murder in connection with Jaylyn McCoy's death.
Buck admitted to being present at the scene but denied pulling the trigger, claiming that someone he only knew as "P" was the one who planned the robbery. Buck's attorney argued that Buck fled the scene when another shooting victim started firing shots. Buck was held on a one million dollar bond.

The investigation revealed that McCoy and another person were found shot on Hawaiian Terrace, and McCoy succumbed to his injuries at the scene.
The case drew significant attention from the local community and law enforcement, with both Buck and Davis facing serious legal consequences for their alleged involvement in the crime. The court proceedings and investigations continued as authorities worked to determine the full extent of each suspect's involvement and responsibility for the tragic incident.
Jaylyn McCoy's death left a profound impact on his family, friends, and the community, who mourned the loss of a young life cut short by violence.
