McKinley Watson, a 50-year-old African American man, was shot and killed inside a vehicle on August 8, 2014, in a Southeast Side alley in Columbus, Ohio. Officers responding to a shooting behind a home on Oakwood Avenue just before 10:00 p.m. found Watson; he was taken to a hospital but died shortly after arrival. The shooting followed an argument, and a male Black suspect fled the scene immediately after the attack.

Columbus Police Homicide investigators identified Andre Lavon Boozer, Jr., 35, as a suspect and filed an arrest warrant for murder on August 13, 2014. Boozer’s last known address was on Carpenter Street, a few blocks from the shooting location. Watson was recorded as Columbus’s 61st homicide victim of that year.

Anyone with information about the shooting or Boozer’s whereabouts is asked to contact the Homicide Unit or Crime Stoppers.
