A fight in Colerain Township turned especially ugly when a victim was punched in the face several times and then bitten, according to Cincinnati police, who say they are now searching for 23-year-old Jevoy Evans in connection with the April 19 incident.
According to WKRC, Evans is wanted on a felony assault allegation stemming from the April 19 confrontation. According to the station, a photo of Evans, credited to the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office, has been disseminated in an effort to locate him. According to WKRC, Evans was last known to live in Colerain Township and has a history of “failure to comply.”
According to local media reports, a man with the same name has previously appeared in severe court cases. In May 2023, WLWT reported that Jevoy Evans was charged with felonious assault after reportedly shooting a shot from an apartment balcony in Reading. Police have not confirmed whether the individual in that prior case is the same person wanted in the Colerain assault.
