On January 3, 2023, 16-year-old Nayshawn Lovett was found shot multiple times inside a stairwell at the Quality Inn & Suites on Trimble Road in Mansfield, Ohio. Emergency responders transported him but he died of his wounds, leaving the community reeling at the start of the new year.

Investigators identified 31-year-old Monteles Holland of Ontario, Ohio, as a suspect and sought him on an aggravated murder warrant. Multiple agencies joined the search, and U.S. Marshals arrested Holland in Columbus on January 10, 2023. The circumstances of the shooting and any relationship between Lovett and Holland were not immediately clear.

Anyone who knew Nayshawn or has information about what happened that night is asked to come forward.
