A double homicide in Columbus on February 26, 2025 left two men dead at an apartment complex on Blakewell Lane. Officers arrived about 4:36 p.m. and found 42-year-old Antwan Lewis pronounced dead at the scene; 31-year-old Harold Forrest was taken to a hospital in critical condition and later died. Authorities identified two suspects and charged both with two counts of murder: 33-year-old Abdou Seye of Canal Winchester and 33-year-old Brandon Colbert of Columbus.

Court records say Colbert admitted driving an SUV to the complex, dropping off an unidentified male, then parking nearby and walking toward the apartment to meet that male before both fled. Seye was arrested in Detroit by U.S. Marshals and held in Wayne County Jail pending extradition to Franklin County; Colbert was arrested locally and had bond set at $500,000. The investigation is ongoing as police continue to gather evidence and clarify the events that led to the shooting.

If anyone witnessed activity at the Blakewell Lane apartments around 4:30–5:00 p.m. on February 26, or has information about the unidentified person dropped off from the SUV, please come forward.
