Jamie Garrett was 26 and from Columbus, Ohio when he was shot on August 2, 2016, during an incident at a residence in Franklinton. The shooter, identified as Kalawn Rashad Lammkin, forced his way into the home allegedly intending to harm the mother of his toddler. Garrett was shot during the altercation and later died at a hospital.

After the shooting Lammkin fled with his one-year-old son and was later apprehended by Columbus Police detectives, the Special Victims Bureau, and SWAT personnel; the toddler was returned safely to his mother. A Franklin County Grand Jury returned an indictment in State v. Lammkin charging Lammkin with aggravated murder, murder, kidnapping, aggravated burglary, and having weapons while under disability, with repeat violent offender specifications from a 2015 conviction. Lammkin was arraigned and held on a $2 million bond; family members reacted emotionally in court.
