Akron police: Man fatally shot after being caught in crossfire of 2 unknown suspects

A 25-year-old man died early Sunday morning after police say he was caught in the crossfire of two unknown suspects and unintentionally shot in Akron's Highland Square neighborhood. Police responded to West Market Street just before 12:30 a.m. for a reported shooting and found the victim with a gunshot wound. The 25-year-old was later pronounced dead at Cleveland Clinic Akron General Hospital. Detectives from the Akron Police Department conducted interviews and collected evidence, but police have not identified the suspects involved in the gunfire. In an update early Monday afternoon, the Summit County Medical Examiner's Office identified the victim as Timothy Hutchinson of Wooster. “On behalf of the Akron Police Department, our hearts go out to the family and friends of the young man who lost his life. No one deserves to lose their life because of senseless violence," Akron Police Chief Brian Harding said in a statement. "I can assure you that our detectives are working tirelessly to identify those responsible and to bring justice to the victim and his family. We’re asking anyone with information to please come forward." Akron Mayar Shammas Malik, in a statement, called the shooting "awful and completely unacceptable." "My heart goes out to the loved ones of the young man who was killed in this shooting. We will relentlessly pursue those who committed this crime and continue our efforts to prevent violence across our city and hold all perpetrators accountable," Malik said. "In addition, over the last several months, our APD and Economic Development teams have been working with stakeholders in Highland Square around concrete ways to crack down on late night partying in parking lots and other safety concerns. We will continue those efforts and share more soon on steps that we are taking to improve neighborhood safety." Anyone with information on the shooting is asked to call the APD Detective Bureau at 330-375-2490 or 330-375-2Tip. READ MORE: https://www.wkyc.com/article/news/loc...
