William Hinson, a 46-year-old Black man, was shot and killed on June 30, 2022, in the Linden neighborhood of Columbus, Ohio. The shooting happened in the 1000 block of East Hudson Street after an altercation outside the Northland Food Mart; as Hinson drove away from the confrontation, shots struck his vehicle, causing him to lose control and crash into a utility pole. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Columbus police opened an investigation and on July 5, 2022, arrested two men, 23-year-old Shandale Brown and 20-year-old Ayub Issack, charging them with murder in connection with Hinson’s death. Detectives reported that the dispute began in the Northland Food Mart parking lot and that Issack fired multiple rounds into Hinson’s vehicle as he drove away. This was recorded as the city’s 63rd homicide of 2022.

Does anyone have information about the altercation that preceded the shooting or saw activity in the Northland Food Mart parking lot that evening?
