EAST CLEVELAND, Ohio – As Christmas nears the murders of Black women in Cleveland and its neighboring suburbs like the impoverished East Cleveland continue to rise  as East Cleveland police are investigating the shooting death of an unarmed Black woman whose body was discovered by a person walking a dog  at about 9:28 am Mon., Dec 6 at Hawley Playground between Euclid Avenue and Terrance Road just south of Hastings Avenue in the poor Black suburb of some 17,000 people. Community activists became immediately upset.

"This is a continuation of the growing epidemic of murders of Black women and poor women in Cleveland and neighboring East Cleveland," said longtime activist Kathy Wray Coleman, who leads the Imperial Women Coalition, a women's rights group founded around the murders of 11 Black women on Imperial Avenue in Cleveland by the late serial killer Anthony Sowell.  "And we call on law enforcement authorities to search for the killer or killers of this Black woman as if she were White, affluent and blue-eyed." 

Activist Alfred Porter Jr, president of Black on Black crime Inc, agreed and said that "activists are awaiting more information in this tragic case of the homicide of another Black East Cleveland woman in under a month."

Police have not announced any suspects in this latest case of murder of Black women in East Cleveland

This most recent discovery of the Black woman's body on Monday comes behind the discovery early last month of 22-year- old Alishah Pointer, whose lifeless body was found also in East Cleveland and in a burned up abandoned home on Savannah Avenue that has since been torn down by authorities. Pointer was also Black.

East Cleveland Police are not releasing the name of the female murder victim whose body was found Monday, though sources say she is Black.

Police Chief Scott Gardner did say in a press release that the woman's death is an apparent homicide due to multiple gunshot wounds to the body.

East Cleveland’s detective bureau was on the scene and police are asking that anybody with information call the East Cleveland Police Department at 216-451-1234.
