CINCINNATI — One man is dead and another person is injured after a shooting in Over-the-Rhine, according to the Cincinnati Police Department.

Cincinnati police said officers responded around 12:35 a.m. Thursday to the 1600 block of Walnut Street, near a gas station.

A Cincinnati police sergeant told our crew at the scene that he came from The Banks to assist.

According to a CPD, Brandon Lawrence, 30, was found with a gunshot wound. He died after being taken to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, CPD said.

A second victim arrived at Christ Hospital in a private vehicle. Police said the second victim had non-life-threatening injuries.

Police set up a perimeter extending several blocks, with cruisers reaching as far north as Grant Park.

This shooting follows another incident in the same vicinity just last week, where a woman was critically injured after being shot in the head.

Police have not yet named a suspect in that earlier case.
