On August 1, 2022, 34-year-old Nicholas Scott Dowler of Columbus, Ohio, was shot outside the Old Landmark Tavern on Rumsey Road on the city’s South Side. The shooting occurred about 9:40 p.m.; multiple 911 callers reported the Avengers Motorcycle Club was involved and several people had gunshot wounds. Dowler was taken to OhioHealth Grant Medical Center and died there at 10:32 p.m.

Another victim, 50-year-old Glen Clark III, was pronounced dead at the scene. Columbus police searched the Franklinton-area headquarters of the motorcycle club for evidence. A grand jury later indicted 39-year-old Brody Sieber, who was also injured in the shooting, on two counts of murder, two counts of felonious assault and one count of having weapons under disability; authorities requested a warrant for his arrest and say he is believed responsible for the deaths of Dowler and Clark.

Anyone who has information about the shooting or Sieber’s whereabouts is asked to contact Columbus Police or Central Ohio Crime Stoppers.
