On the morning of November 9, 2024, at about 8:20 a.m., Columbus police responded to a shooting on Fitzroy Drive at Walford Street in northeast Columbus. Medics pronounced 40-year-old Abdulrahman Mohamed dead at 8:27 a.m. Another person was critically wounded and taken to a hospital. Detectives say the shooting was captured on camera from multiple angles and was witnessed by several people.

Investigators report an argument between Mohamed and 26-year-old Devon R. Ford before the shooting; charging documents allege Mohamed called Ford’s younger brother names, after which Ford pulled a pistol. A warrant has been issued for Ford on murder charges, and he remains at large. The Columbus Police Homicide Unit is leading the investigation.

Anyone with information about the incident or Ford’s whereabouts is asked to contact the Columbus Police Homicide Unit at (614) 645-4730 or Central Ohio Crime Stoppers at (614) 461-TIPS (8477). If you knew Abdulrahman Mohamed or witnessed the shooting, can you help investigators by coming forward?
