John David Moore Jr., a 51-year-old African American man and former lawyer, was fatally shot on October 8, 2021, in Columbus, Ohio. He was found in a parking area behind his South Linden home in the early hours and later pronounced dead at OhioHealth Grant Medical Center. Police say the shooting was believed to be a robbery gone wrong.

The investigation led to the arrest of 35-year-old Joshua T. Adair of Pickaway County. Authorities tied a cellphone found at the scene to Adair, and security video reportedly captured a man fleeing with a handgun. Adair was charged with murder and a judge set bond at $1 million during his initial appearance.

Moore was remembered by family and friends for his dedication to the community, sense of humor and recent involvement in stand-up comedy; his sister Shronne Rochelle Moore-Williams described him as an amazing person with a huge heart. Does anyone have information about Moore’s activities in South Linden around the time of the shooting or about the security footage mentioned?
