Tavion William Allen Walker was 20 when he was shot in Columbus, Ohio, on the night of July 15, 2020. Officers responded about 11:19 PM to a shooting near North 4th Street and East 7th Avenue and found Walker in an alley with apparent gunshot wounds; he was taken to a hospital and died at 11:42 PM on July 16, 2020. His death was recorded as the city’s 68th homicide that year.

Investigators released surveillance video and images showing persons of interest, including people who attended a vigil for Walker the following day. That vigil turned violent when several men fired shots, wounding four people, and police believe the vigil shooting may be tied to Walker’s murder. No arrests have been announced and the Columbus Police Homicide Unit, with Central Ohio Crime Stoppers, is asking anyone with information to come forward.

Does anyone have information about the scene around North 4th Street and East 7th Avenue on July 15–16, 2020, or about those seen in the released images?
