Tyrese Saunders was 21 when he was fatally shot on January 14, 2021, during an altercation in the Milo-Grogan neighborhood on Columbus’s Near East Side. Police reports say the argument escalated when 18-year-old Davon Martin pulled a handgun and shot Saunders. Saunders drew his own firearm and fired several shots at Martin before dying at OhioHealth Grant Medical Center.

Martin fled on foot after the shooting and was arrested on January 26, 2021, in Sandusky County by the Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force. He was charged with murder, taken into custody without incident, and had a prior juvenile delinquency conviction; records also show a Franklin County indictment in September 2020 for carrying a firearm illegally and that his bond was revoked after the shooting. Saunders’s death was reported as the 13th homicide in Columbus in 2021.
