Noah Matthew Kinser

Age 18

Miamisburg, Ohio

A big heart, a big help

He was a senior at Miamisburg High School in Miamisburg, Ohio. He loved cats and the University of Michigan Wolverines. He also worked as a cook for the TJ Chumps restaurant downtown.

He was always willing to help anyone without hesitation. His mom said he “had a big heart and an even bigger smile.”

Noah Matthew Kinser, 18, was shot and killed in what police called “a targeted home invasion” just before 10 p.m. on Jan. 30, 2018. Miamisburg Police Sgt. Jeff Muncy said that police “don’t believe (the incident) was random” and that “(n)eighbors don’t need to worry.”
