Charles Knapper, 21, of Columbus, Ohio, was fatally shot during an altercation at his ex-girlfriend’s house on East Moler Street shortly after 2 a.m. on September 16, 2020. Bowens fled the scene before police arrived and Knapper was pronounced dead at the scene.

The Franklin County Prosecutor’s Office later indicted Bowens on aggravated murder and two counts of murder, all with firearm specifications; Bowens was subsequently arrested and charged in connection with the killing. Knapper’s death was among a string of violent incidents in Columbus around that time and prompted a private memorial service for his family.

If anyone witnessed the shooting at the East Moler Street residence or has information about the confrontation that led to Knapper’s death, please share what is known.
