Police: At least 4 suspected of firing guns in Short North shooting

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has offered a $10,000 reward for information on the suspects involved.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Columbus police believe there may have been four or more people who fired guns in the Short North Arts District shooting over the weekend. Ten people, including two teenagers, were injured.

“We have [the] possibility of four or more shooters, just based off the casings that we recovered,” Columbus Division of Police Assistant Chief LaShanna Potts said during an interview with 10TV's Andrew Kinsey on Tuesday.

The shooting happened early Sunday morning in the 1100 block of North High Street, between Standard Hall and Michael’s Goody Boy.

Police said eight men and two teenagers were shot. All are expected to survive their injuries, according to Potts.

A male dressed in all black was seen getting into a white Honda Civic that drove away from the scene. Police pursued the vehicle and attempted to stop it several times, but were not successful.

A man turned himself in to police Sunday evening and identified himself as the driver of the Honda. Franklin County Municipal Court records identified the man as 19-year-old Deangelo Fuller. Court records also say he admitted to driving the Honda Civic and not stopping when officers chased him.

Fuller is charged with obstructing official business with the risk of physical harm. He was given a $100,000 bond in court Monday and has since posted bond.

Potts said the police are still looking through evidence and the division is not yet sure if all the suspects got into the Honda.

“We’re still combing through hours and hours of video,” Potts said.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has offered a $10,000 reward for information on the suspects involved.

Anyone with information on the shooting and the suspect is asked to call Columbus Police Detective Jones at 614-645-4373 or Central Ohio Crime Stoppers at 614-645-4749.
