EAST CLEVELAND, Ohio- The 28-year-old East Cleveland woman found dead in a playground Monday morning has been identified as Kalyn K. Moore, of East Cleveland

The Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner’s Office has ruled the death of the young, Black woman a homicide.  Her body was discovered by a person walking a dog  at about 9:28 am at Hawley Playground between Euclid Avenue and Terrance Road just south of Hastings Avenue in the poor Black Cleveland suburb of some 17,000 people.

Community activists remain upset over what they say is a crisis regarding the murders of young, Black women in Cleveland and East Cleveland.

"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.

Activist Alfred Porter Jr, president of Black on Black Crime Inc, agreed and said that "activists are awaiting more information in this tragic case.

Police have arrested her boyfriend Lexx Meeks (pictured) in her murder and he remains in jail and charged with murder.

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