CINCINNATI — A man was killed early Saturday morning in a shooting in downtown Cincinnati, according to the Cincinnati Police Department (CPD).

At approximately 12:39 a.m., CPD officers were dispatched to the 200 block of E 3rd Street for reports of a shooting.

When they arrived, officers found a man who had been shot and was pronounced dead by the Cincinnati Fire Department.

The victim has been identified as Tobias Hood, 29.

CPD said 28-year-old De'Angelo Robinson was arrested for Hood's murder.

Robinson is charged with one count of murder and one count of felonious assault.

According to court documents, a second man was shot in the face and is seriously hurt. Cincinnati police have not released any information on this man, his injuries or his current condition.

In court on Monday, Robinson's attorney claimed the shooting was in self defense and that Robinson believed one of the alleged victims was armed and about to fire on him. The attorney also pointed out that Robinson does not have a criminal history in Hamilton County.

The judge ordered Robinson held on a $1 million bond for the murder charge and a $500,000 bond for the felonious assault charge.

Police have not provided any information on what may have led up to the shooting.
