🔥The Cincinnati Courthouse Riots of 1884 became one of the most destructive episodes in the city’s history, leaving much of the courthouse in flames and forever changing Cincinnati. Stop by the Cincinnati Fire Museum to see an original firehouse journal from the 1800s that documents firefighters responding to this historic event. We are open Tuesday - Saturday, 10-4. 🔥

It is with profound sadness that the Cincinnati Fire Department announces the line of duty death of Firefighter Ryan Zwick, who passed away on June 11, 2026, following a duty-related medical illness. He was 43 years old.

Firefighter Zwick joined the Cincinnati Fire Department on May 25, 2014, and served with dedication for more than twelve years. He spent the majority of his career at Station 35 in Westwood, one of the busiest response areas in our city, where he served on the Medic Unit, the Engine, and ultimately the Truck — answering the call in every capacity asked of him.

He gave this city everything he had, every shift, without hesitation.

Our thoughts are with his family, and with all those who lived life beside him.

Firefighter Zwick will be remembered and honored as a member of this department who died in the line of duty. We do not take that lightly, and we will not forget.

Rest easy, Ryan.
