Darrin F. Mitchell was 35 when he was found unresponsive inside his Columbus home at 1561 Duxberry Avenue on the night of December 17, 2016. Officers were called at about 1:42 a.m.; he had suffered a gunshot wound and was taken to Grant Medical Center in critical condition but died at 2:18 a.m. Witnesses later said he had arrived home already shot and collapsed after entering the residence, but there were no known witnesses to the shooting itself and no known motive.

Darrin, known as Bird, was a former Mifflin High School student and is remembered by family and friends as an avid sports fan and video gamer and a devoted father to three sons, Taleal, Davion, and Darrin Jr. The case remains unsolved and the Columbus Police Homicide Cold Case Unit is asking the public for help; investigators say the lack of witnesses and a motive has hindered progress.

Did anyone in the community see anything unusual around 1561 Duxberry Avenue the night of December 16–17, 2016, or have information that could help investigators?
