Tyler Goins, 34, was shot and killed in his hometown of Columbus, Ohio, just after midnight on May 18, 2024. He had been celebrating his birthday at an apartment on Vineshire Drive with two other men. The group had been drinking when an argument began; one guest, Al’Saiah Griffin, reportedly left the gathering and returned, after which a neighbor heard Griffin yelling threats and then gunfire.

Police were called about a shooting around 12:30 a.m. and found Goins with a gunshot wound. Medics pronounced him dead at the scene at 12:46 a.m. Investigators say Griffin produced a handgun during the argument and fired multiple shots up the stairs, one of which struck Goins. Griffin fled but later returned and surrendered to authorities, admitting to the shooting. Police were also seeking the identity of the third man at the party, known only by the street name Bookie.

Does anyone have information about that night on Vineshire Drive or about Bookie that could help clarify what happened?
