Prince Michael Jackson, 35, was fatally shot the early morning of June 1, 2017, outside Rachel’s Gentlemen’s Club at 6065 Channingway Boulevard in Columbus, Ohio. Police responded about 2:36 a.m. to reports of gunfire and found Jackson near the adjacent Chase Bank parking lot on Brice Road with a gunshot wound; he was taken to Grant Medical Center and pronounced dead at 3:11 a.m.

Investigators say the shooting grew out of an altercation that began inside the club and escalated outside; witnesses told homicide detectives the disputes inside and outside were likely connected. Several shots were fired and Jackson was the only person struck. No suspects were immediately identified and the case remained unsolved as part of a wider 2017 increase in homicides in Columbus.

Anyone who was at Rachel’s Gentlemen’s Club that night or who has information about the confrontation or the shooters is asked to contact Columbus police with tips that could help the family find answers.
