Armani Davon Anderson was 14 when he was shot and killed in Columbus, Ohio, on May 9, 2016. The shooting happened about 5:15 p.m. on the 700 block of S. Weyant Avenue during what reports say was a drive-by; Armani and a 21-year-old man, Devon Wyrick, had been playing dice when the gunfire began. Armani was taken to a nearby hospital and pronounced dead shortly after arrival; Wyrick was critically wounded.

Friends and family held a vigil at S. Weyant Avenue and E. Main Street in the days after the killing. Authorities, including the Columbus Police Department and the Ohio Attorney General’s office, continue to classify this as an unsolved homicide and are seeking leads. The case has been cited as part of broader concerns about violence affecting Columbus youth.
