Authorities were searching for the assailant or assailants, who fled after shots rang out at a home around 11:30 p.m.
Five of the revelers one in critical condition, three in fair and one stable were hospitalized at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center. The three children were taken to Cincinnati Childrens Hospital Medical Center.

Or someone found out they weren't the baby-daddy!
On drugs?
Baby Daddy didn’t want to be punished with a baby (certainly this has happened before)?
Baby Daddy was the target by a rival gang/dealer?
Baby Daddy got someone’s girlfriend/sister pregnant?
Baby Daddy’s side girlfriend hired a hitman to shoot up the baby mama’s home and baby daddy?
Doesn’t sound like it was a robbery gone wrong. They entered the home so I doubt it was even a mistaken address.
But the police are even hesitant to say that the 2 men are suspects.
All injured.
I’m surprised it took 36 posts to notice the fact of 2 fatalities.
My wife and I saved the surprise for ourselves. We didn’t know if our babies were XX or XY until birth.
Well, this one didn’t turn out well. I did some poking around but couldn’t find any information about the perps or possible motives, only journo-garble such as, “The police aren’t certain whether the two men with guns are suspects.” There was a mention that drug-dealing has become a big problem in the area in recent years. Various possibilities remain, including that the shooters included the now-dead gender-reveal baby’s father.
Regarding the concept of “gender-reveal” party, it seems to be an evolution of the “baby-shower.” I had baby showers for my first child (hosted by my co-workers) and my 10th (hosted by my church choir). Other than that, people just gave us things, if they wanted to, after the babies were born. We did not know the sex of our first before she was born, but we did with the 10th, although the name wasn’t decided until we were on the way to the hospital for the delivery.
“I want to call her Asuncion,” I said.
“We’re not Mexican,” my husband replied.
“Doesn’t matter.”
“I thought you liked Amelia.”
“Kathleen, after Maureen O’Hara and my aunt.”
“Fine, Kathleen.”
“You dont read about too many women named Autumn who lived to be 95 or 96.
The over and under for that name must be 26.”
I cannot argue with that.
The Cincinnati newspaper says none of the injuries is life-threatening. The poor little children! Lovely red hair on the man on the right.
Similar to the violence at Chuck E. Cheese parties.
Awesome, classic FR baseless speculations!
Here’s mine:
Somebody in that house was considered dangerous enough that the shooters weren’t taking any chances. That person was probably also the intended target.
Yes, the headline leads one to believe that someone was going to be saying..HEY..you think I am a _______ but in my mind I am a __________
Once that got ‘figured out’ I figured someone found out who the MALE SPERM DONOR was and he weren’t supposed to be dipping his wick in strange places...

Gender-reveal party, one of the latest stupid look-at-me trends.
My daughter did it during her annual ugly Christmas sweater party and her friends have done it. I find it to be stupid and incredibly self-absorbed. Just post it on Facebook and be done with it.
And the pregnant girl’s Facebook is
Cheyanne Babiee
She looks very young.
Not as a rule, no. We try to have everyone under 15 in bed by 8:30. It's hard this time of year, though, when it's light so late.
A gender reveal party. Why so much fixation on me me me, being noticed and adulation. Have some humility, wait till the baby is born, then tell your friends what you had. Why be a prima donna? Humility has a purpose. “Be still and know I am the Lord.” Psalm 46:10.
to reassure the sisters that it wasnt the 5th brother in a row.
sounds like quite the brood;my compliments...
The murderers probably went to the wrong address.
Can’t tell if you two are just being facetious, so I will define this stupid fad for you. At a “gender-reveal” the expectant mother lets her family and friends know what the sex of her unborn baby is.
I noted it at post 20.
