CINCINNATI — One person is dead after a shooting in Over-the-Rhine Tuesday night.

Cincinnati police responded to the 1500 block of Elm Street sometime after 8 p.m. following a report of a shooting at an apartment. Officers at the scene said a 31-year-old man was pronounced dead.

On Wednesday morning, the Hamilton County Coroner's Office identified him as Mikale Booker.

Police have not released any information on a possible suspect or any additional victims, but did say it appeared the person forced entry into the home.

The shooting is not believed to be related to a shooting that took place just a few blocks away on Republic Street earlier Tuesday. One person was also killed in that shooting.
