Rex Cherry, a 24-year-old White man, died on May 7, 2010, from blunt force trauma suffered in a violent altercation eight days earlier. The confrontation occurred April 29, 2010, at a Shell gas station on East Hudson Street in Columbus, Ohio. Cherry and another man, Larry Mabry, were both injured in the brawl and taken to hospitals; Cherry later succumbed to his wounds.

The initial inquiry produced no immediate charges after several people present were questioned. The Columbus Police Department Cold Case Unit later reopened the investigation and, following new evidence and further interviews with the four other men who had been involved, concluded that Cherry and Mabry had been the aggressors and that the four acted in self-defense. In February 2016 a Franklin County grand jury indicted Mabry, then 28, on murder, attempted murder, and two counts of felonious assault; he was arrested by the Columbus SWAT team.

If anyone knew Rex Cherry, saw the incident at the East Hudson Street Shell on April 29, 2010, or has information relevant to this case, please come forward.
