CINCINNATI — One person is dead after Cincinnati police said he crashed his motorcycle during a police pursuit after a reported stabbing Thursday afternoon.
Cincinnati police said they received two separate calls, one for a shooting and one for a stabbing, at a residence in the 2400 block of Westwood Northern Boulevard. When they arrived, they found a person fleeing the scene on a motorcycle.
That person led police on a pursuit that lasted just under 20 minutes and ended with a crash at the intersection of Dalton Avenue and Hopkins Street in Queensgate.
The motorcyclist, identified by the Hamilton County Coroner's Office as 28-year-old Austin Hust, was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police said one other person took themselves to Good Samaritan Hospital, where they were then transported to UC Medical Center and underwent surgery. It is unclear if that person was stabbed or shot from the initial call. CPD did not give any additional information on the person's condition.
An investigation is ongoing, police said.
