Raheem Stenson, a 21-year-old father, was shot and killed on May 17, 2014, in Cincinnati, Ohio. The incident took place on Beekman Street in the South Cumminsville neighborhood, where Raheem was holding his one-year-old son at the time of the attack. Despite the severity of his injuries, the child remained unharmed. Raheem was rushed to UC Medical Center, but he succumbed to his injuries shortly thereafter.
The police responded to reports of two men fleeing the scene in a car, although it was unclear if they were connected to the crime. Authorities have not provided any further information regarding a motive. The Cincinnati community, including family members and activists, held a vigil to honor Raheem and called for justice, hoping that anyone with information would come forward to assist the investigation.
