Cincinnati (Ohio): Nine people sustained injuries following a mass shooting at a music venue in Cincinnati’s East End neighborhood. Local news reports confirmed the incident occurred early Sunday morning.
Eyewitness accounts cited in various reports indicated that at least 15 individuals may have been shot at the Riverfront Live music venue in Cincinnati. Cincinnati Police Interim Chief Adam Hennie said that authorities received a 911 call around 1 a.m. reporting multiple shots fired inside Riverfront Live, situated in the 4300 block of Kellogg Avenue along the scenic Ohio River waterfront.
Hennie specified that nine people were shot directly at the venue, with all victims suffering non-life-threatening injuries. Confusion arose in initial reports because some injured individuals transported themselves to nearby hospitals before emergency responders could arrive on site, inflating early estimates of the total casualties.
Law enforcement personnel recovered a firearm from the scene and immediately initiated a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the violence. As of the latest updates, police have withheld any information regarding potential suspects or the underlying motive behind the shooting, maintaining an active probe amid ongoing evidence collection.
Social media posts revealed that the venue, located directly on the Ohio River, was hosting a lively party featuring several DJs, which kicked off at 10 p.m. the previous evening.
News of the mass shooting rapidly spread online, prompting concerned fans to flood social media platforms with queries about DJ Fresh’s wellbeing.
