Shawn Jackson, 40, of Toledo, Ohio, was shot multiple times in the early hours of August 14, 2021, after a fight that began at the Perch House bar. The shooting occurred in the 700 block of Maywood Avenue; Jackson was found at the scene with gunshot wounds and was later pronounced dead at the hospital.

Two people were charged in connection with the killing. Brian Johnson was arrested and charged with murder after surveillance video and witness testimony linked him to the shooting. Ronmetrius Scott was charged with complicity to aid and abet another. Johnson initially pleaded not guilty but later entered an Alford plea, admitting the state had enough evidence to convict; he was sentenced to 10 to 13.5 years in prison for involuntary manslaughter.

The case drew attention in Toledo as an example of how a barroom fight escalated into fatal gun violence. If anyone has information about the events that night or knew Shawn, please share what you know.
