Colerain Township Police Apprehend Aggravated Robbery Suspect

COLERAIN TOWNSHIP- On May 28, 2026, just after 6:30 A.M., Colerain Township Police Officers were dispatched to a trouble run at the Speedway store located at 9251 Colerain Avenue. Prior to their arrival, the call was upgraded to an armed robbery in progress.

Officers arrived on scene and were advised a male suspect had brandished a firearm at an employee, demanded cash, and then fled the store. Additional officers arrived in the area and immediately located the suspect fleeing on foot on Compton Road. Officers pursued him on foot and were able to apprehend him on Donnybrook Lane. Officers recovered a firearm and an undisclosed amount of U.S. currency during the apprehension.

The suspect involved has been identified as 22-year-old Darrian Hall-Mackey. Mr. Hall-Mackey has been transported to the Hamilton County Justice Center to await arraignment on the following charges:

- Aggravated Robbery (a felony of the 1st degree)
- Obstructing Official Business (a felony of the 5th degree)

If you have any additional information regarding this incident, please contact the Colerain Township Police Department at (513) 321-COPS.

Click It or Ticket is a national high-visibility enforcement campaign that focuses specifically on the consequences of not wearing a seat belt while urging riders to always buckle up.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, unbuckled occupants account for a death in a passenger’s vehicle every 54 minutes. Young adults (18-34) and pickup truck drivers have the highest rates of unbuckled fatalities. Wearing a seat belt correctly cuts the risk of a fatal injury by 50%.

Your Colerain Township Police Officers will continue to work a STEP grant through the Ohio Department of Public Safety in conjunction with the Click It or Ticket campaign through the end of May 2026.

This Memorial Day, we honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

We remember their sacrifice, their courage, and their commitment to protecting the freedoms we hold dear. Their legacy serves as a powerful reminder of the true cost of liberty and inspires us in our continued service to this community.

Please join us in taking a moment to reflect and honor those who gave everything.

Do you know me?

Officers found this good boy wandering around by the Peach Grove Marathon Station off of Springdale Rd. We have him at our Police Impound Lot, but will have Cincinnati Animal CARE come get him by the end of the day. If you know this sweet pup, call (513) 321-COPS or come by the Police Station.
