Two men were killed outside a downtown Columbus nightclub in the early hours of February 5, 2024. At about 1:15 a.m., officers responded to reports of gunfire on the 100 block of West Cherry Street near the Noir Lounge entrance and found 25-year-old Nigel L. Jackson Jr. and 24-year-old Percell E. Scott III with gunshot wounds. Medics pronounced both dead at the scene at 1:25 a.m.

Investigators released images of two vehicles seen leaving the area after the shooting — a mid-size white sedan and a small SUV — and asked the public to help identify their owners. No arrests have been announced and no suspects have been publicly identified. The Columbus Police Homicide Unit is asking anyone with information to call (614) 645-4730 or Central Ohio Crime Stoppers at (614) 461-TIPS (8477).
